Beyond Basics of Bluegrass Banjo by Eddie Collins

Beyond the Basics of Bluegrass Banjo picks-up where Basics of Bluegrass Banjo left off, with about another three years' worth of lessons. The material is intended to help you become a complete player – one who knows the entire neck and can perform solos and back-up in a variety of keys without a capo.

Scruggs, Melodic and Single-String styles are used interchangeably. There are extensive sections in regards to creating your own solos, improvising and understanding music theory as it relates to the banjo.

This book is 112 pages and comes with two instructional CDs – one plays every example in the book, the second is 26 songs performed by a bluegrass band with the banjo parts clearly separated in the mix.

Songs included are:

Banjo Happy Blues
Battle Hymn Of The Republic
