Thought I'd step in and introduce myself. My name is Chris Hallford I'm active duty army infantrymen. I have tried to play the guitar while on deployment and i couldn't just "get it" and ended up putting it down. I have always been a fan of bluegrass/country and even Irish music and the banjo sound so I'm really looking foreward to trying it out and give it all I have.
I really wanted to get the Deering good time but convincing my wife to spend that much has been a challenge so I think I might just have to get the Oscar Schmidt OB5 bundle which I'm sure will due me fine just to learn the basics. I am looking at picking up Wayne Erbseen's ignaramous book and then I'm still on the fence about banjo Ben/murphys method. I know I learn by watching not just picking up a book and reading I have to watch it happen.
I have been going through the forums and doing a lot of research and be the most informed I could be before I pick it up. It's been a dream of mine to learn to play the guitar/banjo. Anyways, thanks everyone for putting up all the resources and information for newbies like myself.
Thanks,
Chris Hallford
