Testimonials on Scruggs Style Instruction

"Your arrangement is as close to Earl as I have ever heard and your instructions are breaking it down into digestible pieces so I'm actually making progress each time I sit down. It is the best value in instruction That I have come across to date. I will buy more once I have this down".Brian, TX

Yesterday I received his Scruggs Style instruction book and 2 CD set, and lemme tell ya'll - I am blown away but the instruction on it! I learned more in 20 minutes of listening to the first CD and just floowing along with my finger in the book - NO banjo in hand! - than I did the first few months of lessons I took.

I am DEFINITELY going become a member there, and also am picking-up his other instruction books. He is explicit even down to where and why to put the odd finger on the odd string, and how that flows into the next chord. Best part is the recorded back-up band, minus the banjo recorded at both slow (beginner-level) and full speeds.

If I can get more actual lessons from Ross through the internet without having to chase him all over the world, then I will gladly pay the price asked! No wonder his site is named "BanjoTeacher.com" - that's exactly What he is!

Soundbytes of Ross's recordings of these tunes taught with the book and CDs:
Lonesome Road Blues     Little Darlin' Pal of Mine     Fireball Mail
Groundspeed      Foggy Mountain Breakdown

I just received the instruction book on Earl's style instruction and listened to the CD, and it's simply fantastic! I'm not really a beginner but I didn't practice seriously! This method'll help me a lot, and I'm sure that in a short time I'll improve my technique a lot! Thank you for this, and I'll need to increase my speed and to work more...... Gerard Poisson
