Ivan "Dan" Pitt Feb 1, 2020 | The books are fantastic. The books are fantastic. Please send my thanks to Ross. His introduction about memorization and the importance of studying are inspirational to me because I can't physically play banjo every day. I have tendinitis in my left wrist which limits how much I can play. So, to hear his words and now to seriously apply them have meant so much to me. |

n/a Aug 21, 2015 | My family is amazed I can't wait to dig into the new materials. You do a superb job with these teaching materials. A year ago, I purchased vol 1 and 2 of a set that included a tab CD, example play CD and a play along CD. In 30 min to an hour 5 times a week, I've committed almost all of vol 1 to memory. |

n/a Aug 21, 2015 | This is a great learning tool for everyone .....I can't tell you how useful the play along backup band cd is for me. I'm only working on one song right now but I'm able to play the chords up and down the neck smoothly at the slow speed and I was able to keep up with the second speed better than I thought I could. And it's so easy to hear the chord changes at the slow speed. This is a great learning tool for everyone but mostly for people like me who don't have the opportunity to learn to play with others now has a chance to do that. Good job on getting this together! |

vicki Aug 21, 2015 | Love It We got one of the play along backup cd's at the workshop and love it. We had a guitar, mandolin and fiddle, --all beginners--over on Tuesday night and had a great time with it. In fact we have a "weekly thing" worked out now so we will probably be ordering the other volume very soon...take care, |
