Have you noticed this instrument over here that looks like a frying pan on a big stick?
well
[Eb] That's a banjo of course
And [Bb] it's a five string banjo.
That means it's got five strings and notice where the fifth string starts way up here
So if I form the chords up [F] here
Then this string isn't included
See this instrument can be so loud that I put a towel in the back to soften it
The strings on the banjo are made of steel and this part is made of parchment
Which is the paper that many of our first books were written on a lot of people use finger picks when they play the banjo
But I don't because I do a lot of strumming now
I'm gonna play a song called cripple Creek because it's a very good banjo tune if I can get through it
