Hi there, I don't know if you check your comments anymore, but I just wanted to send some thanks your way for making banjo videos I can follow. I'm not musically inclined at all, I'm way more visual with my creativity, but your lessons are the first I could really learn from after a few weeks of trying a kazillion other online teachers. Thank you for your kindness, patience, and encouraging demeanor. I can now play Amazing Grace. One of my Dad's favorite songs of all time. (He is a retired Southern Baptist preacher.) I will play this for him soon and it will mean a lot. Thank you for this gift of banjo knowledge, my friend!
I don’t know if you still check these or not… but bless you brother!!! I bought a banjo last week. My first instrument… just something about the sound of it speaks to me. Well, I set out on RU-vid to find some lessons to learn how to play.. I must have watched about 4-5 different peoples beginner video… totally lost me… then…. I stumbled upon you my friend…. And I just feel so connected to you… be blessed through his grace my brother in Christ… thank you for all the effort and work you put into there videos
Thank you so much, my brother, for your wonderful comment. It is so encouraging. Subscribers like you is why I do the videos. I'm sorry I've left everybody hanging but I'm still recovering from 2 strokes I had a little over a year ago. I hope to start up some videos soon but everything in God's time and if it is His will, it will happen. Blessings in Jesus Christ, my brother.
I got the bum ditty and part of amazing grace without looking today. Need a lot more practice though... But im already feeling like I did a thing.😊 Thank you so much. For teaching me. It really helped having a song i was familiar with too.( love the hymns and Jesus songs 😊) Hope your recovery is coming along good. God bless you and your family🤗
Thank you so much. That encourages me to try to get better fast. I was almost better from the 1st stroke when I had a second stroke that I'm now recovering from. Thank the Lord that they found a blood disorder that doesn't break down clots that might be in my blood. I'm now on blood thinner and recovering fast. It might take another 2 or 3 months but I plan on teaching a whole lot more on how to play the banjo. Please be patient with me and hopefully I will be back soon. Blessings in Christ. Shawn
@@banjologic Oh Shawn I'm so sorry to hear you had a second stroke.

I ask for your comfort and peace for Shawn and his family. Your will be done in their lives Lord. In Jesus name I pray🙏🙌amen. God bless you. And thank you so much for getting back. You rest easy now ya hear. Healing hugs brother 🤗
ive been searching for a while for a non uptight professional banjo player who wants me to pay for each lesson. you truly are a very comfortable and beginner friendly teacher! thank you for getting me started. ive finished lesson 1 already and got the bum ditty down! currently learnin Amazing Grace which is a great pick by you sir! thank you and god bless.
Thank you for your kind words. Stick with it and you will be playing the banjo soon, I believe. I don't charge for lessons because it is a hobby that I could use to bring glory to our Lord Jesus Christ and be a blessing to people like you. Always doing it in Jesus' name. Blessings in Jesus Christ. Shawn.
That brings me great joy when I could use it. That is an encouragement to me to try to get this banjo ringing again. Lord willing, there is a lot more to come. Blessings in Christ, brother.
Hello my friend thank you for this lesson you are a very good teacher I like the way you broke it down into parts I am looking forward to lesson 3 the only problem was the first part was a little dark with the window behind you but the lessons were fine . You fill me with confidence Thanks again God bless
Thank you, Glenn. That gives me encouragement and I'm glad you are getting something out of the lessons. That is the goal is to go slow with the lessons so you can quickly learn to play your first song on the banjo. I believe that is very important so it keeps you encouraged to keep learning the not so fun lessons. The next lesson should be a whole lot of fun. I apologize for the dark setting at the beginning of the video but after I proof watched the video, I noticed the lesson part was ok. But I will try to do a better set up next time. Thanks again for your encouragement. Blessings in Jesus Christ.❤🪕
I have been watching your videos and i really enjoy the way you play . I have watched a lot of videos from different people I really enjoy you way you teach thanks again
You will get used to it and remember go slow, learn fast. It is all about muscle memory. Just be patient and you'll be there before you know it. Blessings in Christ. Shawn
But,your leaving out the pick pattern,idk,love you brother,pray you recover well,I'm trying real hard to learn this amazing grace,will follow you,n keep learning
Mike, if you want to learn to play the banjo, you can and I will be praying for you to play. So sorry to hear about your daughter but without a doubt, Jesus tells us she is in a much better place because she is with Him. Just always remember, when you start playing, take your time and go slow, learn fast. We pray that this will bring you some joy knowing that she loved bluegrass. Hopefully I will do more instructional videos when I get better. Blessings in Christ.
I will do a video on finger picks I hope soon. Sorry I couldn't get back with you sooner but I had another stroke that I'm recovering from. As soon as I can, I hope to bring BanjoLogic back to full swing. I've been thinking about doing a video on a banjo I recently had custom made for myself and maybe I can do a video on finger picks since that doesn't require me to play the banjo. Please be patient with me, I plan on being back because I love teaching the banjo. I'm getting good therapy on my arm and hand that should bring me back where I can play. Blessings in Christ. Shawn
