3.0 out of 5 stars okay for intermediates, September 11, 2007

This review is from: Mel Bay's Back-Up Banjo (DVD)

I am an intermediate banjo player,I used this book when I had about 8 songs under my belt and found I needed to play backup. It is decent, gets the job done, has a video with it that is decent too. My favorite backup banjo ( this is ONLY for backup) instructional material is from Accutab and is a dvd called ( I cant remember the exact name) something like 3rd position backup or up the neck backup. Both are similiar, they show an early intermediate player who may know from 4-15 songs how to start playing backup. Banjo players are well known for playing loud obnoxious backup and hopefully these will help reverse that trend(!) The book/dvd is good but not excellent, make sure to get the dvd with it!
