No lessons even compare to these. I knew this was the guy was going to teach me the banjo when i saw the overalls
Will Campbell yeah, the overalls signal this guy is bone fide
Jim, I am a Senior Citizen in my 70's and your instructions are so clear even I can learn from them. Thanks for making life fun!
I'm 63 and just beginning. Love it's teaching
My sentiments exactly!
Almost 60 myself and always enjoyed playing acoustic guitar since around 14, I played almost always for self enjoyment. (Drummer and there was always a country music gig somewhere in Tulsa area in the mid 80's).
I learned that I really should have learned a bit of banjo FIRST. I'm a definite beginner and absolutely love Jim's instruction! Very good "therapy" for me.
Holey cow. Ok Jim I am gonna comment. I have had a banjo for 5 years and absolutely love the sound, but never learnt much over that time and it sat in my wardrobe getting old right along with me. I found a bunch of different videos this year on the net and all seemed ok, but none really made me want to play, they just made feel a little slow :-)
The I discovered your first video and it sparked me into picking it up, cleaning it off and playing just a little bit everyday. I am 57 now and all I want to do is to be able to play some songs with confidence. Damn if your style didn't strike a chord. I chuckle every time I watch and I feel good about playing and not being great, just having a go. It doubt I can hold any kind of timing together, but damn I love the sound and I really appreciate the guidance and way you think. A little bit everyday is all it takes, your lessons are pretty much the right size (for me) in terms of difficulty and stuff to learn. It has only been a few months but you know what, I feel absolutely terrific when I get bunch of notes together properly. Cheers for that, I can't thank you enough, not sure how these new rolls are going to fair, but its the right time for some new stuff. Wish I could shake your hand. For me and everyone young and old that you are inspiring, you have our gratitude for sure. All the best. Rick
Well said. I agree 100%. I'm still struggling with CC all the way through let alone in time. I'm just happy Jim is patient :)
Dear Rick, Hope you doping well. Please let me introduce myself my mamy is Iza, 37 years old and I try to learn play on the banjo based on Mr. Jim support on you tube. It's amazing how Jim can teach,I never play on any instrument before. I still can't play.. only do what MrJim shows on wideo slowly or a litle bit fastest but I still cannot anything else. But I know Mr.Jim is fantastic nad I'll fo it, I will be play on the banjo 😊. Wish you Greatest sound, fantastic play. I just start my adventure palying on the banjo and I'd love it, please don't giveup, greetings from Poland 😊
Same here! Almost the exact same story. Thanks so much Jim for these light hearted videos. They really help.
Rick, you described my situation perfectly.
Jim, I agree with everything Rick said. I've been watching your videos and playing 30 minutes per day for just a month. I can't say I'm good yet, but I am having fun playing and love your videos and your style. Thank you. Jeff
Im an italian exchange student in the US and i bought a banjo so i could learn a little about american culture, thank you for your lessons, i really enjoy them, and i’m learning super fast too! Thank you for being kind 🙏🏻
How exciting! Thanks for letting me teach you ☺️
I tried to learn the guitar and failed and was told the banjo was harder to play... but I always wanted to play one, so I got a banjo and was told to Watch your videos. You brake it down and make it so simple ,and now I can play the banjo.
Thanks for letting me teach you 😊
Hang on a second while I take off my picks... That's better, can't type with them on.
Every morning I get out of bed and I just can't wait to pick up my banjo again. That's down to you Mr Pankey with your incomparable teaching. It's like being taught by a favourite uncle.
My heartfelt thanks, again
I remember when I got my banjo for the first time really wasn't that long ago but I had no idea what to do with it. now it's crazy I'm actually playing it and it don't sound too bad. I couldn't have done it without you Jim. you made your instructions super clear and I've never had so much fun learning from someone keep doing what you're doing man this world loves you for it.
So glad I can help you learn to play!
Jim, you've added a lot of joy to my life. I've had a banjo for several years but never had found a teacher, and tried to teach myself from books. Your videos are engaging and fun, and I've learned so much! Still can't believe that I'm playing Cripple Creek with the "fancy bits" like the hammer-ons and pull-backs and whatnot. I'm impressing even myself! My son is learning from your videos too and my goal is to be able to play Dueling Banjos with him before long! "Practice, practice, practice!" Thanks again ,Jim. You're a blessing. God bless.
So glad I can help you learn. Thank you for letting me teach you.
DearJim, please record and keep continuation you lessons because no one can do to this and teach as you can. You'r students players need you and thank you for your support.
Jim, I'm having so much fun. You are the most wonderful teacher. I can't believe that I'm playing Cripple Creek. So looking forward to what's coming. Thank you and God bless you.
Jim may or may not be the most technically proficient banjo player on Earth, but he IS the best teacher on Earth.
Thanks. 😊
Hello Mr.Pankey! Thank you so very much for all you are doing. I for one appreciate it very much. Not so much my son though as he told me today to learn a new song haha. So onward I go to banjo in the hollow. My brother bought me a used 4 string banjo around 30 years ago as I had confided in him that I like the banjo. I plunked away on it for about ten years but I prefer the sound of a 5 string so I traded it in for a brand new 5 string. Then I ran into some difficulties and couldn't play it. I couldn't even pick it up, I was so weak. 10 years of physio therapy, acupuncture and chiropractor later, here I am playing cripple creek with a big smile on my face :) Thanks again and may God bless you with all the good things.
Jim, is a one of a kind guy who loves to play the banjo!
Thanks :)
Just want to add my voice to the chorus. Thanks so much for the great videos. I'm learning so much!
Keep on picking, and keep me posted on your progress!
Only guy on RUclips that actually teaches the banjo!
Thanks!
You have made my banjo experience great. I think I need a little humor in my lessons and seeing your head come out of the top/left corner gives me a smile every time. Also they seem to be the appropriate complexity/length for my little brain and big clumsy fingers. Thanks!
My grandkids gave me a banjo for Christmas/Retirement because I always wanted one. Your videos are very helpful. Thank you!!
Thanks for watching!
Hi Jim, this is just what I needed to get me started. These videos are very helpful and I enjoy and relate to your teaching style.
These are just the best videos. I have been struggling to make progress but the way you put these tutorials together works so will. thank you!
Thank you so much for all the help Jim! You're such a kind soul and definitely someone I look up to in the musical world. :)
been hammering away, racking up the hours on the banjo and really learning alot. Id really love to learn Shady Grove for my Mamaw, love your videos, thank you so much!
Learning banjo in the lockdown, as Jim says, “you can do this”.
You can! 😊
Still learning, still working away. Have struggled with it this past week, but still loving these lessons Jim.
He even replies to comments, he’s a cool dude very greatful for the videos and all the help
Most important lesson I learned from this guy......Always sit in a straight back chair 🪑
It helps. :)
Hey jim! I'm new to banjo and I love your videos. I'm used to play fingerstyle guitar so I'm doing this quite easy, but I really enjoy learning this. Cheers fand keep up the good work!
Jim, these are the BEST lessons! Wished I lived close enough to take my lessons from you in person. You really have of way of making this enjoyable! Thanks again. Jeff LeFebvre - Honolulu HI
Hey Jim! I got into a serious case of the bored when I graduated school at the start of January and I just picked up a banjo on the weekend and haven't been bored since. I really enjoy your videos and you have a great way to teach. Thanks!
These videos are amazing I love it! Keep up the awesome work you remind me of my old guitar teacher In the way you do everything I love it!
Thank you Jim in down here in SC and all my buddies play the acoustic guitar. But the banjos always had a soft place with me. I followed the other videos and I am on there sites but I find myself coming back here. Thank you for your hard work and putting out content me and others really do appreciate it.
I just have to say thank you SO much for making these awesome videos!! I was in a major creative rut and trying to learn by reading chords and strumming "Oh Suzanna" from an old book and... it was not working. Then I found you and I'm hooked! I just love the humor and light heartedness you add to the lessons. I've been playing for about 2 weeks and the fact that I could actually play a full song was a huge confidence boost. I can't wait to learn more. You rock Jim!!
Thank you sooooo much for making these videos! I Have always wanted to play an instrument. I dont know why I chose the banjo, but now I'm glad I did. I love it!
I'm from Minnesota, and was never much of a Bluegrass man. Just didn't hear a lot of it. But while listening to bands like The Avett Brothers and Trampled by Turtles (out of Duluth) I fell in love with the banjo. I've never played an instrument and can't really read music but bought a banjo recently. Searched RUclips and found your lessons and thought ,"yep, this is the guy." It's been about 5 weeks, and although I'm struggling I'm loving every minute of it. Liking the banjo has opened me up to music I normally wouldn't listen to. Thanks man.
Thanks for letting me teach you!
Someone gave thumbs down on every comment which makes them look bad, it's not even worth commenting. Good job Jim, keep 'em coming!
Got this far after a week with my new banjo, enjoying the experience Jim thanks..
These are far and above the best banjo lessons I have ever found!!
Jim, you’re the best! I took banjo lessons when I was 14 after 8 years of piano lessons. I didn’t stay with it, mainly because I struggled with my cheap rent-to-own banjo that was really a mess. The action was terrible; nut was so high that the strings cut my fingers trying to press nearly a quarter inch to the fretboard, and my tension 5th tuning peg wouldn’t stay tight. It’s been sitting in the closet for 45 years. I knew I couldn’t get anything for it in that condition, and I still want to play, so I took it in and got a complete setup, drum tightened, new bridge and strings, new geared 5th string peg and the action fixed.
I never got past Cripple Creek all those years ago, and it took me about a week to get back to where I left off. Having a blast practicing with your video lessons. I’m determined to learn Foggy Mountain Breakdown after I get Cripple Creek polished. Just wish I could find my copy of Earl Scruggs and the 5 String Banjo. I may have to cough up another $35 to get a new one.
Thanks for the inspiration and helping me get back to it!
PS. I bought a Ukulele a month before I got my banjo fixed and have learned a bunch of songs already on it. Enjoyed your ukulele videos too!
Don’t skip the other lessons in this series to get to FMB. Skills you need for it I’ll cover in the next lessons here.
Today is my day one for this video. I’ve watched lesson 1-5 over and over again until I got it right. Love your videos and the way you teach it’s making learning the banjo easy and fun. Thank you very much Mr. Jim
Sir u are an amazing teacher these videos have helped far more than any other's
Thank you Jim! Your videos are the best!
I don't comment much, but I just wanted to say "THANK YOU" for all your awesome videos! I'm older than a half century now, but I've always wanted to play the banjo. I finally got one only a short while back & I went searching for instruction on RUclips; that's when I came across your channel. Now there are many other videos out there, but yours are the best! I just love your happy vibe & kind, smiling face; and you really explain things so well - and with lots and lots of encouragement. I appreciate that so much!! You really helped me know that I CAN do this if I just practice enough and take my time. Your instructional style is just perfect & now I am doing FAR better at this than I ever thought I could do - thanks to you! I am thrilled to be playing! I'm gonna keep at it of course & I look forward to learning more and more. I will always be grateful for you and your videos that helped me so much Jim - you are a real blessing!! THANK YOU!!!!
I have to tell you that you may have saved my sanity. What I have left anyways. I started learning how to play the banjo 30 years ago but had to give up my banjo after a few months due to finances. I started again when I found your videos. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for putting these on here free of charge. You are one of the best teachers and THE best online. I’ve watched several over the years but yours is the only ones I felt comfortable enough to try. I’m playing cripple creek, slowly and sometimes “plinky”, but I’m playing nonetheless. Again, thank you.
Thanks again for taking the time. I've tried tab but just couldn't get it. I've even used a beginner book. My best way of learning is watching and listening to you.
I can play it back as much as I want to. It works for me thanks.
Loving what your doing and how your doing it! Keep up the great work for those of us who don 't have access to a teacher. Your the best online :-)
I love this guy's lessons. What a skilled and generous teacher.
I have watched other videos but I really like your's the best. You take your time and and give a novice like me a chance to follow along, and you don't start your videos showing off your own skill and speed and demoralizing me!!
Thanks a lot for the videos! Been watching and practicing
I started playing banjo since mothers day. My younger brother inspired me to learn, and I love hearing him play his banjo. He's been playing for 6 years now. Just wanted to say thank you for these lessons! They are so clear and they keep you interested without being TOO challenging moving forward. Anyway, THANK YOU!!
Jim. Thank you so much for being an incredible teacher. My biggest dream was to learn how to play the banjo, I never found a good teacher. Now I did. I love it.Thank you
Thanks for teaching this! It's getting way easier now than it used to be 😊
Thanks so much, Jim! Your videos and your optimism and your overalls make me happy :D
Happy to hear that!
Hi Jim, I really enjoy your lessons. It’s obvious that you also teach in real life. I love the way you build your lessons, combining techniques and songs so naturally. Your modesty shows in really taking the teachers position instead of showing off how well you can play as the obvious skilled musician that you are. And your humour, including these deep looks in the camera really makes me laugh. Keep up doing the good work. Greetings from a fellow musician in Holland 🙋🏼♀️ 🌷
Glad you’re enjoying the videos. Thanks for watching. 😊
I played the 5 string 40 years ago ( beginner only ) and decided to give it a go again. I really appreciate Jim's progressive approach and his patient manner. I looked at several on line lessons and his approach clearly the way to go for me. Thank You !
I was just about ready to give up, 3 months learning from a book & it still sounded nothing like a tune. Now after the 4th lesson of yours, my faith is back! I'm looking forward to picking up that banjo, I'm seeing/hearing improvement, after nearly every practise. I feel optimistic about becoming half decent.
Thankyou so much
Thanks Jim for your input, from a 77 year old who has taken up the Banjo once again after many years of it laying idle.
Glad you are playing!
Jim Your my favorite teacher , you make playing the banjo easy .I've only been playing for 7 days now and I'm on lesson 6 I'm not going to lesson 7 until I get lesson 6 down nice and smooth. Thank you Jim for posting your videos!
Thank you, Jim. I am really enjoying your videos .
Thanks for letting me teach you 😀
I’m loving these lessons! Every so many days of practice, I’m ready to learn a new skill. Thanks a lot.
Thanks for letting me teach you 😊
Hey Jim,
Newbie banjo student here; I absolutely love your videos and your teaching style. You have the rare skill of transforming the complex into something that can be understood and executed. Please keep these videos coming.
Gerry
Jim, your approach and teaching method is really excellent. I appreciate the country gentleman touch added to the skill and knowledge you are sharing. The cats in the background are also a bonus. The convenience of this type of step by step instruction is perfect for older ones like me, allowing a comprehensive program that one can grasp at his own pace. I'm looking forward to moving up to your vast library of individual song instruction. Keep up the good work.
Got my first banjo at the young age of 50. I believe that if I had not found Jim Plankeys videos. I wou8be able to get it. But I am. Slowly be surely. Thank you Jim. Amazing
Keep on picking!
I'm another Brit enjoying your lessons - Thanks Jim!
I’m so glad these videos are out they have helped me so much to learn to play the banjo
Thanks for letting me teach you! :)
Your lessons are great! The best ive found on you tube. Ive only been playing a week and jim is the best online teacher i have found. I can play cripple creek now because of him. (Im just working on the speed)
Thanks, Jim. I've been sitting in my basement basically getting personal lessons from you for almost a month now!. . . My wife knows what I'm talking about when I say "Jim Pankey says..."
Thanks for letting me teach you banjo 😊
Hey Jim, I knew how to play the banjo 2 years ago. It just made me feel like I didn't have to worry about anything. In July I nearly died in a car accident and couldn't play the banjo for about 6 months while forgetting everything I had learned. Going from a player who could just play on hand and didn't have to think about what to play to then knowing nothing about playing was a tough thing for me. Thank you for actually having a channel that I use to get started again to bring back the cheer I had while playing. -Samuel Williams
Jim, I am a Senior Citizen in my 70's and your instructions are so clear I have had a banjo for 5 years and absolutely love the sound, but never learnt much over that time You have made my banjo experience great.You are the most wonderful teacher.I am very greatful for the videos and all the help
Thanks

Thanks for the kind words. So glad you found my channel. Thanks for watching. 😊
I’m a youngster trying to learn and I’m getting used to the banjo and loving it. I plan on keeping the banjo alive for generations to come
Jim for president! Seriously, very helpful videos at a pace I can comprehend as a new banjo player. Thanks so much for making them. You are the Internet's banjo teacher.
President? Man, I thought we were friends. 🤣
You’re invited to the first bluegrass jam in the Oval Office!
Hello Jim thank you for your lessons mate they are by far the best I’ve come across
Thanks for watching ☺️
Love your lessons, Jim. Thank you so much! I just retired and have gone through about 10 of your lessons. You really make this fun and very informative. Great teacher!
Thanks for watching and letting me be part of your banjo journey.
Made it to lesson 6! Thanks, Jim!
Fantastic!
Jim These videos are fantastic , I have been this far and go back and repeat them over and over because I haven't got them quite yet and certainly not smooth either , the great thing besides your teaching is being able to go back over the lessons an unlimited amount of times. Thank you for putting them up
Thanks for letting me teach you ☺️
I'm 39 years old and have picked guitar since I was 14. Always wanted to learn how to pick a banjo...and you have taught me. Thank you so much!
Thanks for letting me teach you!😊
Hey Jim,
Thank you so so much for these videos. I play a little clawhammer and it took a while to find a clawhammer teacher that connected with my way of learning, and that was without tab. I wanted to also learn a bit of 3 fingerstyle and your methods are perfect for me. Your videos are also incredibly informative and entertaining
Thanks for letting me help you learn
Ive watched your tutorials months before I actually bought my banjo. Now I actually have one and get to learn
Keep me posted on your progress 😊
I just simply love you . Thank you sooooooo much . What an inspiration you are
Hi Jim, Thank you so much for doing these easy to learn lessons, you do it with encouragement, telling me " you got this" I bought a new Jameson banjo and it arrived on the 21st of Sept and I have never played one before. Today I played cripple creek all the way thru without mistake using your lessons. my fingers hurt like the dickens the first 8 days but now i play for 2 hrs over and over and no pain at all. so, I bought a 1000 dollar fender concert tone 58 today and It is scheduled to arrive on Tuesday, I tried it out at the store and for some reason the"hammer on" and "pull off" and the slides are very easy, both to perform as well as the sound is much more predominate so I figured the 129 dollar banjo was great to start on and now that I have a few roll patterns that are going well I need something that emphasizes the notes I am playing. Foggy mountain break down I'm heading yer way. with a little help from my Friend Jim < BIG GRIN>
Thank you so much for these. I started playing banjo because it’s my grandpas favorite instrument and you have made it very easy to learn to play cripple creek and many other songs
Glad to be helping you learn!
I am from west virgina have always wanted to play bango,just ordered one hope to learn to play,will turn 61 sept 15 my present to myself,can,t wait to get it ,have a great day!
I enjoy you knowledge. Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day for us who really want to try.
You’re more than welcome. Glad you’re leaning!
Hi Jim! Love how you teach, thank you! In lesson six, I was practicing at work and showing one of my coworkers the pull off. He said it looked like a booger flick!!! Hahaha made me laugh so hard , I had to take a break! Thank you for your instructions! For someone who had never picked up a stringed instrument, my husband says I am doing great!!!
Wonderful! Thanks for letting me teach you!
I decided to pick up the Banjo after getting into Pete Seeger and I bought his book but I've found it hard to follow. I think I'm more a watch-and-copy kind of guy because I've learned a lot from these videos. They're easy to follow and get results. I've even tipped my toes into the Tune Tutorials play-list and tried a bit of Will the Circle Be Unbroken (even though I'm not quite at the level to play that confidently yet). So thanks for posting them, they've been a big help.
You are by far the best banjo teacher on RUclips!!!! You are so easy to learn from and you explain things well!
Thanks 😊
I have just started playing the banjo. I'm 66 yes old and have been drumming for 56 yrs. I always wanted to play the banjo. Your vids are great. I am now up to #4 and playing Cripple Creek. Thx again
THIS IS AMAZING!!!
Jim you are hands down the best banjo teacher on RUclips and the World! i'm a 30 yr old kid, just got my first banjo ever delivered on Friday and already by Tuesday (less than a week ago) i'm playing Cripple Creek with all the bells and whistles past lesson 6. Keep in mind that i have a full time day job and never ever played any other musical instruments in my entire life!
THIS IS AMAZING!!!
Now ill be starting your lesson 7. Thank you Very much!
Awesome lessons. Makes it so simple and enjoyable. Keep them coming
Thanks!
i am going to chime in too: thanks Jim! I never considered myself musical- in fact I thought i was downright tuneless. Last month on a whim I purchased a banjo at an estate sale. It was missing a string and badly out of tune. Since then I have purchased strings- learnt to string a banjo, learned to tune it (snapping two in the process) : and found your channel. Now- I can almost play a Cripple Creek! Yee Haw! Badly but still... I am amazed- and the way you teach is fantastic- your positive attitude is contagious.
My neighbor's probably hate you though.
Thank you, Jim. I've wanted to play the banjo for years and finally notched my first tune. You have so good at breaking it down to help me learn.
Glad to help! Keep me posted on your progress.
You said to keep coming back to the videos and I will sir. They're great I am progressing very well. Had my banjo for a few months but I have gotten so much better this last week or so following your lessons. I am very grateful Jim.
Thanks for letting me teach you ☺️
I am really growing in confidence. Lessons are just brilliant.
That’s exciting to hear! Keep going. 😊
Loving these lessons. Every day I practice losing my sanity now. You really make it engaging to drive myself nuts, and I'm even learning how to pick some banjo in the meantime.
Awesome! Keep me posted on your progress.
You’re losing me with these rolls Jim. I’m stuck on this lesson but I’m not giving up. Absolutely the best banjo lessons I’ve come across and I’m gonna keep at this until I get it down. Thank you very much for all the great lessons!
You are such a joy to learn from. Thank you so much!! (:
Jim, like all the post below I am amazed at how you have helped me get back into the Banjo. I built one back when I was 18, now 60 and trying like heck to pick it up again. Love your lessons. Hope their are a lot more.
Thanks for letting me be part of your banjo journey.
Thank you so much for all of these videos
Glad you like them!
Thank you so much. Love the way you teach!
Happy to help!
Superb stuff.
Charging through your lessons. Thank-you for your time and great teaching
Keep me posted on your progress ☺️
@@JimPankey
Will do Jim!
You are probably the best banjo techer i came across on youtube. Ive played guitar for years and have always wanted a banjo. Bought one finally just a few days ago and had trouble wrapping my head around it with some of the other peoples "lessons" but as soon as i found your videos i seem to be picking it up extremely fast. Thank you so much!
Thanks for letting me help you learn! Please keep me posted on your progress.
Jim, am new to the banjo and 73 years old, but am dedicated to doing this. Am trying online lessons, and also using your teaching method. They differ some, but I love the way you make the skills develop through each lesson instead of just throwing the song out there. It is a developmental process that is very encouraging with small steps on each lesson. You are the best.
Thanks for letting me help you learn!
