Anders Svensson 'wrist problems' with my Banjo.. (17) 'wrist problems' with my Banjo.. 14 Jul 99


Hello everyone I have a serios problem! I have played the banjo(5-string) for about 2 years now, and recently I feel pain everytime I try to frail on my banjo..

Never felt it before, and I have not played so much the last month just to relax my wrist, but as soon as I grab my banjo and start to play some frailing/doubble thumbing the wrist starts aching again...

Anyone else who´s got the same problem? Some tips would be appreciated folks!!

Maybe (cause i´m rather new on the instrument) I tense my wrist or something like that...

Thanks!

ps I´m rather new on this forum and this is my second post here. Hope to get in contact with people here, and share my interests with you all!! By the way I am from SWEDEN and I only know ONE guy here who play the Banjo..

se ya all!!

Anders
