I could not find a comparable instruction guide already available so I proceeded to write one.

By keeping its focus specifically on its subject, the whole matter of finger differentiation, control, strength and dexterity is dealt with, independent of other musical complexities.

As a result, students are then able to move on to note reading, note to fret connection, inter-hand coordination and gradually all of the rest of the music symbols encountered in a piece of music without the drag of stumbling fingers.

As I mentioned in the description to “Early Fret Identification Exercises For Banjo”, I routinely use this workbook and its companion from the start with my new banjo students.  I have found that so doing handles these needs quite efficiently and in short order.
