The book includes tablature
for up the neck solos and breaks for Foggy Mountain Breakdown, Little Darlin'
Pal of Mine, Fireball Mail, a solid low break for Lonesome Road Blues, and some
other tasteful innovations in solid bluegrass Scruggs Style. The tab for Fireball Mail, Lonesome Road Blues and all the other songs included is easy to read and includes the chords to the songs, also right and left hand fingering notations for more difficult passages.
The Scruggs Style Instruction for Five String Banjo book with two CDs is not
for brand new beginners. It is more suited for new intermediate or intermediate players who understand the fundamentals
and feel they are ready to learn by only reading the tablature and listening to the
CD. The CDs have the songs recorded slower and up to speed along with backup band
rhythm tracks to play along with as well as verbal audio instruction on each song
but the tablature booklet does not include text instruction.If you looking for the best right from the beginning 5 string banjo book with CD and DVD, read about,

Reviews 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"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!
....just ordering the book and cd's for scruggs style thanks a bunch! i'm having fun finally learning the right way to pick the banjo i'm a very pleased customer.......Just what I was looking for, too bad all banjo song books don't come with the songs in complete form like this one. Thanks for the great instruction material, Bob
I got the booklet yesterday - wow that was fast! I already started using the lessons - great dvd and book. Thanks again, Carlos

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
