I

know you want to hit the ground running on your banjo journey, and
Bluegrass Banjo For Dummies is designed for you to head straight to your
favorite destinations in whatever order works best for you.
Here are a few recommendations on how to get started:

If you’re shopping for your first bluegrass banjo, pay a visit to Chapter 2,
where you’ll get acquainted with the parts of the banjo and find a
complete buyer’s guide.
If you’re playing music for the first time on your banjo, head over to
Chapter 3 to get in tune and to fret your first chords.
If you already know a few chords and want to begin working on authentic
bluegrass picking styles, get your fingerpicks on and head over to Chapter
4.
If you’re interested in working on the playing techniques you’ll use to
play with other musicians in bluegrass jam sessions and in bands, check
out Chapters 9 and 10.
If you’re a more experienced player and you want to explore progressive
banjo styles, head to Chapters 11 and 12 and get to know melodic and
single-string banjo styles.
