The best banjo beginner chords tutorial on YouTube for me
Comment from : @peteshour768

Great information! Well presented, and explained I'm interested in creating my own chord diagrams, like those you displayed in the video Can I ask if there is a program, app that you use to create the diagrams?

Comment from : @vocalzbyjamelle6241

I especially like the C chord Anything that starts with the middle finger is for me😁😇

This is a great help for the beginner (I shouldn't bother with explaining how every chord sounds odd with the addition of the G , I think we get it)
Comment from : @sionnachog894

every time i try to play chords my strings just sound muted…
Comment from : @bamashine8822

Good tips, thanks Now to figure which rolls go best And more therapy excercise (ew on that last one)
Comment from : @silverlagomorpha3177

You are blessing to me! I've just stared to play and there is no even one school around me that learn playing banjo It is pity because it was my dream So here you are and I guess dreams come true! Greetings from Poland!

I am 82 years old and love banjo music I am excited to be on day 3 of your 30 days of banjo but my index finger doesn't bend far enough on my left hand Are there any exercises I can do to make the first joint more flexible?
Comment from : @eileenlagreca455

thanks bro i appreciate
Comment from : @NehemiasRodriguez-of7xj

The finger picking pattern to practice the chords was so helpful!
Comment from : @adamgregsb442

A full month of doing hand stretching and trying, and I still can't even play 4 chords I have extremely disproportionate hands, with HUGE handpalms and very small stubby fingersbrbrI think I have to admit the Banjo, like every other string instrument is just not for me
Comment from : @ThefamousMrcroissant

Thank you for this lesson on chords, thorough and precise, without wasting time on too much talking It helped me a great deal I play guitar and ukulele, and now I made some good progress on the banjo
Comment from : @gila260

Thanks mate Exactly what I was looking for Coming from guitar to banjo was melting my head a bit, but this video has helped a lot
Comment from : @evosagan2877

Comment from : @casperkasparov302

IS that a U or a D shape banjo ?
Comment from : @BikBoi-qf7xx

Sorry for all the comments,but can you use that bar shape A and B chord for any major chord
Comment from : @michaeldematteis3409

A lot of these are inversionswith the 3rd or 5th in the base I see
Comment from : @michaeldematteis3409

G over the D chord is a G major 9 right?
Comment from : @michaeldematteis3409

Eli , you rock , best lesson ever I have been playing guitar , tenor banjo and mandolin since 1972 Alwaysloved the 5 string but didn't have the time to learn Started playing semi pro in 76 and I am now retired and bought a G banjo at last Couldn't have found a better tutor , you are so cool and right on point , thanks verymuch @seancreaney7
Comment from : @Seancreaney7

Eli…Why are you showing the fingering on the chord box in opposite to what you are actually playing? Your representation should be the same in both cases You are showing a left hand chord box for right handers If you are going to include left handers in your beginners lessons your narrative to be all inclusive Otherwise inform us up front that these are right handed lessons so we don’t waste any more time with you
Comment from : @barrysmith8193

Thank U of this video Today, in age of 64 i bought my first banjo and I’m going to leatn it 😊br- Mike
Comment from : @HaukikoiraVirallinen

You talk to much get to the point
Comment from : @PaulHoffner-w2w

For me a lot of those fifth string notes that don't actually belong in the cord but still sound good seem to be a passing note Thanks for going slow without a lot of extra talking!
Comment from : @pupawheelie

I lost my left index finger in an accident several years ago I have played the banjo before the accident Only 1/3 of it remains Do you have any suggestions ? Did create an extension out of a plastic tube Getting use to playing it on my lap
Comment from : @robertkbrooks951

Comment from : @nightskyimaging

Hey Eli! Is it correct that you slowed down the pace remarkably? Only 1 post per month in patreon?

The 30 day series is a great starter series!
Comment from : @mbeck6319

Are there any songs that use b major and b minor? Never heard of any that don't use them unless you're capo'd at A And what about d minor?
