Hello Ron. I just sent the link to our current banjo player.
Thanks Ron!
I have been playing jazz guitar and banjo, “for ever”. What you wrote sounds interesting. Tell me more
Well, what I am trying to do myself is learn to play modern single-string jazz improv, just like the guitar but on the plectrum banjo (C-G-B-D tuning). I have battled with laziness my whole life, and writing about a subject has proven to be the best motivator for me to do the research to learn about it. As far as I know, there is absolutely no literature available for playing this style on that tuning (and very few players who do it). So, I developed a framework using Modal scales and arpeggios, and then expanded that into a bunch of “jazzy” licks and patterns so I can at least imitate jazz improv. So far, I have yet to find the key to letting go, but my playing has really taken off, especially with the single-string style. Anyway, I’m asking $40 for the book. I would just need your mailing address, and you just need my Paypal address.
