{"product_id":"banjo-method","title":"Banjo Method","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book, written for those with no prior musical experience, is the definitive text for learning C-tuning concert, or classic-style 5-string banjo. Written by the late Frank Bradbury, Banjo Method provides a thorough grounding in music theory and note reading, along with a complete presentation of Mr. Bradbury's unique 5-string concert banjo technique and outstanding solo and duet arrangements by various artists. The technique described here is radically different from that found in other books about the 5-string banjo, and no tablature is used. No plastic or metal picks are used on the right-hand fingers, nor are the fingernails used, but rather the bare fingertips. The hand positions recommended by Mr. Bradbury are not unlike those of a classical guitarist. All in all, this is an uncommon, but valid approach to solo banjo technique. Online audio of select pieces and exercises featuring Rob MacKillop now available.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mel Bay Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58786126233760,"sku":"MB93238","price":36.54,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0100\/7786\/4002\/files\/MB93238.jpg?v=1788106601","url":"https:\/\/www.musichorizon.com\/products\/banjo-method","provider":"MusicHorizon","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
