Thank you very much great help to me as a learner on the Banjo. I have a tuner but this confirmed that all was ok.

Hi thank you for all the information but can you please help me decide the best 4 string tuneing option ? not the 5 string

Bonjour
je suis un vrai novice dans le banjo et je vais commencer mon apprentissage mais avec tout ce qu'il faut connaitre je me demande si mon petit cerveau de 54 piges va résister, je ne veux pas devenir une star,mais j'aimerais vraiment jouer du banjo cet objet me fascine surtout le son a ce propos je ne sais pas s'il faut remettre le chevalet a plat quand on ne joue pas, ou si on peut le laisser en place ( cela ne déforme t'il pas a la longue sur la peau du banjo si jamais j'ai des réponses Merci a vous

pour mon pseudo papy comme son nom l'indique et fazer pour les connaisseurs c'est une moto

i have a 4 string banjo whats the most common tuning

Thanks for your help in tuning my banjo. As a novice it was a great help to me

Thankyou

**aDGBD sorry

and for those wanting different tunings
for aDGBG (playing in a usually with a capo on the second fret) - tune the fifth string to the seventh fret of the first in standard tuning
for - gCGCD (old timey)
tune the second string to the fifth fret of the third string
tune the third fret of the fourth string to the open third string

hope that helps

the banjo is the ultimate statement against everything that is pre-fab and manufactured in modern music.

What's NORMAL If you only play in the Key of G you are limiting your full potential

Or should that be FOOL I'm sure you can work that out for yourself.. Duh

alternate tunings? I'd stick to the normal one.. if you need an electronic tuner to tune....

The battery on my electronic tuner just died and I found this great little online tuner.

It would be FANTASTIC if it had alternate tuning options such as aDGBD and gCGBD.

Arrgh. I am working on some new lessons and I need those tuning options. I am snowed in at the moment and I can't get out to buy a new battery talk about being frustrated.

Check the guitar tuner for alternate tunings: you can specify the note for each of the six strings
