would like for you to know the exercises have already help my speed and I like
the presentation". Thank you. Dwayne Glanton
This "How to Build Speed" book is getting me movin'. The practice song is a great goal as well as super to listen. And yes, I resisted,but I finally really do see it, using a metronome = faster progress. Thanks, Dennis Lottman
...Ross,
The Dixie Breakdown book is a great exercise. Super roll practice. Fun song to
work up and demonstrate the abilities of the banjo. Keep doing the web page and
training material. I would like to see more intermediate - advanced methods and
tab.

taken some private lessons but have gotten more out of your Building Speed book
and CD.

...Ross,
I ordinarily do not contact anyone when I purchase their products, but I had to
let you know I purchased your "How to Build Speed on Your Banjo" and
in just 5 days it has absolutely increased beyond my expectations. Billy F
....I
have found that the song Dixie Breakdown teaches so much more than just the song
itself. What I am learning is transferrable to just about everything else I have
learned so far. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to improve any part
of playing ability to get the course, learn the exercises, do them, and learn
the song. Thanks again.
The tablature for How to Build Your Speed on the Banjo and transcribed in the tabledit tab program. It is easy to read, includes more detail, looks neat and improves the overall quality of the book. I also have had the original tape version re-mastered on to CD with improved quality. I've added more text and exercises to the book, including a written transcription of the spoken portion of the CD. How to Build Your Speed is satisfaction guaranteed or your money back.
