Negative Positive
Title: Somewhat dated
Review: The problem with information on learning the banjo isn't a lack thereof - it's just the opposite. There are tons of available books, CDs, DVDs, online printed and video lessons; some free, some at a minimal cost.This particular one is from a series that includes bluegrass guitar, bluegrass mandolin, and others. I had used the guitar and mandolin books back in the 80s, so ordered this for the banjo. Two principal complaints: the first is that the tablature is hand-drawn, with notes "on top" of the assigned string, rather than "in" it. Example:__0__versus --0--No doubt an artifact of when it was published, before computers and .txt files.The other is that it contains a 33 rpm thin plastic record, rather than a CD. Much less user-friendly; again, a function of when it was published.
Is the review positive or negative?
