I've decided to try to learn the 5 string banjo which has been lying around my house for 20 years or so, maybe longer.Now I have two problems , one is that I'm left handed, the other is that I'm a late starter, very late.And I've never played an instrument of any kind before.( the only non playerin at least two generations of my family) Is there a good book on 5 string banjo that anyone can reccomend??. Time is ticking on,I've got to do it now. |
