Learning Plectrum Banjo by Buddy Wachter
This is essentially the same lesson as "Learning Tenor Banjo," making use of the longer-necked, mellower plectrum model. The plectrum banjo is tuned C, G, B, D (like a 5-string). Because of its longer scale, the tone tends to be deeper and richer, better suited to solo playing. (The tenor model has a shorter neck and a higher, sharper sound, good for cutting through other instruments in a band situation.) Four-string players tend to be fiercely devoted to one type of banjo or the other because of these differences.
Learning Tenor Banjo
The tenor banjo has a shorter neck and higher, sharper sound than the plectrum, good for being heard in a band situation. This lesson includes theory, basic chord formations, picking and strumming exercises, plus other invaluable knowledge necessary for playing virtually any tune on the banjo. Instructed by Buddy Wachter, this video program includes chords & music.
