Thanks Ross
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulThanks Ross. I really like your products. I learned more in three hours watching your instructional videos
than I did in three weeks with books. The Banjo Encyclopedia is also unbelievable. I’m going to have lots of
fun working my way through that.
Thanks again!

It's something that I've wanted to do for a number of years, now, and I've finally committed myself to it. I've purchased a some of your on-line lessons and it's been great to see my progress at the end of each practice session. The lessons are very well laid out and the videos are extremely helpful.
