O.O very impressive, very impressive indeed -faves-

:) thanks! *hugs*

not bad on the pickin' skills....i never could play the banjo, but i could play the 6 and 12 string guitar. So good play!

Guitar is a more useful skill anyway:) banjo is fun but you cant really do to much complex stuff on it. I mean, how do you do a 9th chord when your fifth string is a drone?

well, when you make a 9th chord you usually leave the 5th out anyways in theory cause it is still heard as an overtone :P

Wow, that's pretty fast, but the notes are all struck clearly and crisply, so congrats, it sounds nice!

it could be better, my banjo technique is odd. I only use two fingers instead of 3, and I use my finger nails instead of picks. This means that when i play something I have to ignore the roll that was originally written for the song. I think it makes things sound a bit off sometimes. This song doesn't show it as much. but anywayz thanks^^

Well, I don't know much about banjo technique (nor music for that matter! sadly, it's an instrument with a very characteristic sound). I remember reading a book on playing baroque music (pre-bach) and they used to play scales on the harpsichord using only three fingers (with the fourth being used to start/end the scale) when now four fingers are used (with the fifth to start/end the scale).
I don't know how that applies to banjos, but I couldn't tell that there was anything wrong!

Woo hoo! I loves me some foggy mountain breakdown ^^

me too, I might have to upload the version of rocky top i did on mando a while back:)

I wish I could play banjo like that.

I thought you did O.O who was playing banjo in this? http://www.furaffinity.net/view/2358927

Computer generated, my friend.

*Hangs his head in shame* It fooled me.

Good!! That means I did it right!

I'd say is pretty nice. And banjo don't get anoyed. I kinda like it. I wish ya coul play it more. yo know ... dat sound pretty good. bud!

I love it too! Its a bit harder to record witch is probably one of the reasons i dont use it more. thanks :) I'll try to upload some more bluegrassy types stuff in the near future.

yay! i love this...one of my favorite songs to use for my summer camp slideshows :P

nice! i never had fun music for any of the slide shows i was ever shown!

well, you never came to my summer camp so there :P

Heres one of my slide shows if you wanna see it :P

Ahahaha XD

your skills scare me ;~;

however this is win x3

my limited ability to fumbe my way through everyday music? :P I still need to learn to play something respectable like piano.

lol piano's no different, really x3 just memorize the notes and you're good :P

looking at banjo music on FA, i play that song about ten times slower, but damn. were you using picks? impressive sir. very nice.

No picks, just my natural fingernails.

Thanks :)

i prefer nails as well. but i can't keep long nails at my job. picks are always too uncomfortable. i have found that Alaska picks are more natural to play with, they can hurt after a while cause i'm in between sizes.

pretty good! I know the begainning of the song and need to listen to the rest so I can play it! Im good at it but still learning ;3! Maybe one day we could meet and have a banjo duet XD

This definitely doesn't irritate me--I'm a fellow banjo picker. I'll be learning that Scruggs tune here pretty soon actually. Oh and some advice on the sound of your banjer--you might ought to get the head tightened a bit and loosen the tailpiece's pressure on the bridge. Also, a small wad of rag or socks in between the truss rod and the head (close to the neck, not directly under the bridge) will help your banjo sound a little more punchy and fuller toned. :3

I could do all those things myself :) Have you seen my other profile lol? http://www.furaffinity.net/user/ajguitarfox

I have the head loos on purpose. I like the dead tone it has because most of the time I find that failing a banjo with a tight head doesn't quiet sound right. I cant 3 finger pick anyway so it doesn't bother me.

I'll definitely go check it out. ;3

I see, you've got the head set to your taste, and that's what counts. Still though, if you ever want to experiment and lose some of the hollow gourd-like sound, you could still put a sock wad in it (Pete Seeger claimed diapers worked very well X3). I do both clawhammer and three-finger and sort of prefer a tighter head (though not TOO tight lol). The banjo I currently own is a Washburn B-9 that has a solid cast-aluminum rim and has a lot of sustain so I usually have something stuck in it to make it a little more 'plunky.' I've long since kept the resonator off of it...gives it that old time sound and feel. Anywho, I'll quit rambling. XP

I failed to spell "frailing"

It's okay, I knew what ya meant. ;3
