F-shape chord / 'Little Maggie', and a 'bluegrass' sound on frailing (clawhammer) banjo

Описание: In this tutorial we focus on the F-shape chord and how this can move up the neck, and also look at a very cool hammer-on in this chord shape which gives a more 'bluegrassy' sound. The tune/song 'Little Maggie' is great to play with this technique.

Hey everyone :) Welcome to the banjo ranks! I'm Banjo Jen - a singer-songwriter from Sheffield in the UK. I don't really play loads of old tunes (even though they're cool) and I don't focus overly on too much theory or technical aspects. But I use the wonderful frailing banjo style to play and create songs, and - most importantly - to play for fun. So I hope that I can help you to do the same thing and get enjoyment out of this fab instrument if you're just starting out (just be aware you will always be the butt of jokes in folk music circles if you play the banjo!). Please join me in the uphill struggle to make banjo cool!
