5 string Banjo Tab

2018-01-25 Thread Jean Louis Thiry
Hi everyone, here is a simple table showing the place of note on the banjo neck in G-tuning (gDGBD). Easy to adapt to other tunings simply by sliding a line or more. You have to use \clef “treble_8” and absolute notation. It also may be a good help in learning music sight reading. hope it helps.
