Book Reviews of Earl Scruggs and the 5-String Banjo: Revised and Enhanced Edition - Book with CD
Book Review: Not for beginners
Summary: 3 Stars
It's a solid book, but often criticized because the tablatures are just dictation of Earl's performances, which are very complex. When I first bought this book, I was a beginner. I had to put it down and come back to it 2 years later when I was finally ready to learn Foggy Mountain Breakdown. If you're just starting out, I'd strongly recommend Geoff Hohwald's Banjo Primer book/DVD. Then work your way up to the Earl Scruggs book.
