There is also audio of the full tunes so that you can download and listen to them to help facilitate learning.

This course is designed to take an absolute beginner, get them started and playing tunes within a few weeks.

*EADG tuning is typically used in Ireland and may require strings that are made for that tuning. Brands such as Dunlop and D'Addario produce strings for Irish tuning. It is worth keeping in mind that American banjos are usually tuned to a higher pitch.
