SKAK 2008 Week Two

 Old time banjo is a very traditional way of playing the banjo, and incorporates many many different regional styles.  Clawhammer/frailing, drop-thumb, two finger, three finder, up picking, down picking, round peak, Galax, etc.  We’ll focus on traditional clawhammer/frailing technique with some drop thumb thrown in.
