Obviously, this one is useful for learning the tunes with which you might not be familiar. While this makes them less "entertaining", the timing of every single note in every single song and exercise is absolutely perfect -- something quite valuable for banjo players (or any musician) of all skill levels. No more omitting beats or adding extra beats that cause you to be out of synch with the other players! The CD's are computer generated, rather than studio recordings of a band. CD DESCRIPTION The 1st CD contains play-along exercises from Volume 1, so that as you are learning a particular technique you hear what it should sound like and learn the correct rhythms. (This is the area in which I often need extra work on a tune.) You can hear and practice exactly how the notes and beats are spaced. The 2nd CD contains each of the songs in Volume 2. However, even for the tunes you already know, it is particularly valuable as a means of perfecting the timing of the tunes. The Plectrum Guide / CD combination makes an ideal learning tool.. It is essential for a beginning banjo player and highly useful for intermediate to advanced players

Finally, somebody does Plectrum! :-) I was waiting for this book to come out for the last ten years and I didn't even know it! It is very complete and well organized. The two volume arrangement works quite well. The first volume consists of lessons and techniques. The second volume is filled with songs and sheet music showing you every single note and chord position! What usually slows me down is not knowing a good transition chord fingering but Dave and Susanne solve that by listing every single note for every song. Wow just like .

As plectrum banjo books go I have had them all, but this is by far theee most clear and well written banjo instruction book ever presented. I know this book will help anyone improve their banjo ability and musical knowledge,because it sure has helped me.
