Bluegrass Banjo Basics App Reviews

As mentioned you can't take out the banjo guide track as it says you can, so you can't use the tracks for backup practice tracks, at least on an iphone5. For $3.99 this should be fixed. As is it's just a small collection of tabs . The company does not response to emails, at least not after two days.

I like the app. Don't hear any difference in the jam slider. Solo seems to have as much guitar as jam does??? If I am understanding correctly the solo side should be only the banjo. Thanks for the app can't wait to start on banjo2.

Easy to follow, well formatted. It's a nice portable version of a intro book. Definitely recommend to beginning banjo players!

I am a fan of this app. All day at work I can't wait to get home and play the banjo. I have had a banjo for a little Under a year. I played for about a week when I first got it and soon lost interest. With this app I have been going strong for two weeks and can't wait to get the next app from this provider. I love it.

More useful than any of the 6 or so books I've bought to learn to play. The scrolling feature is wonderful to help keep in time and not losing your place. Its a great practice tool that should help anyone learn the basics. The 1st app I've spent more than $.99 on and worth three time the $4 it cost. I'm about to get the second edition to!

Don't buy. No sound

Really helped out a lot.

Awesome for beginners. Worth every penny!

This is a banjo Basics applications. Professional teaching practices. Easy to learn skills.

I stumbled across this app by chance, and have been more than pleased with my purchase! It is truly and excellent learning tool... way easier to follow than a book. All types of learning (visual, audible, hands-on) are encouraged with this fantastic resource. Keep it coming!

Not a bad app, wish that it had more tabs and some traditional ones to go along with it.

I really like the layout of the app. The only issue is the Jam and Solo modes do not change anything. The songs still have both banjo and background guitar.

app is a tool to help you become the music legend, it guides you complete and easy to understand, thank !!!

App is decent but you can only slow the tab auto-scrolling speed to 25% of the original - way too fast for a rank beginner. I am forced to pause the scrolling and manually scroll. :-(

It's so well done. #2 is a must buy as well. Hope they continue the series.

Looks nice with smooth scrolling but useless without sound. Apparently sound hasn't worked for over two years based on review time stamps so I am assuming the authors have gone AWOL.

This is one of my app i like best. It is so useful for me and the price is not expennsive. Thanks for a useful app.

I'm a finger style guitarist who is passionately intent on mastering the 5 string banjo having given up on a 4 string banjo over 50 years ago (yes 50). I learned guitar by listening to and watching others. I can read music and even tab only very slowly. But the method you have developed - even without the the video's fits my style of learning so well and gives me the freedom to go at my own sweet pace. I believe my ability to read tab is already speeding up. I have purchased both the first and the slightly more advanced version and my comments apply to both. I hope you will continue to add more advanced versions - I will almost certainly be getting more advanced thanks to your brilliant app. I am also a techie and find your app very elegant, and user friendly. This is one of my favorite apps.

This is a great instruction banjo app. The best I have found or could image. Play along tab scroll is really well done. Suggest making app audio work for slow down as well. Also would appreciate an iPad version.

I will get the next lesson when it is fixed. Thanks

Thanks for the development of this software, it allows me to learn to play the banjo-depth skills.

So good I'd pay good money for a 3rd Banjo Advanced! Waiting....

Where is Bluegrass Banjo 3! This app is fantastic, and a great tool for learning banjo. This is the future of music instruction.

The app worked great at first but now I cannot get any sound to work. Frustrating...

I can't here the track music. Don't waste your $.

This app is revolutionary! I have been able to accomplish more in one day with this app than I could in a whole month by myself. I hope this is where the future of learning music is going because I love it! Can't wait to start Bluegrass 2!

Awesome app for a beginner on the go or at home

This app gets you playing whole songs pretty quick. For a beginner I find it quite satisfying. It's laid out well and is easy to use. My one wish as a beginner is to see a visual difference on the TABS between the melody notes for the song and the rolls. For example show the melody notes in red. It would help see how songs are embellished by the rolls and help me see where I can embellish said melody notes in my own way. Other than that, this app is great.

Just downloaded the app and there is no sound. Makes it really tough to learn when you can't hear what the chords, tabs, songs are supposed to sound like.

Wonderful app for learning the banjo and getting your hands familiar with techniques. I was lucky enough to discover this app when it first came out and I was just starting to play banjo it was a huge help to my playing and I couldn't have gotten to where I am without it. Tutorials are really easy to understand and follow. Enjoying this. Thank you

I just downloaded this app the other day and have started learning the ones I like the best. Good clear instructions and sound, as well as great tab for you to follow. It's so easy to learn for newbie players
