Speed is a big topic in the banjo world. As Tom Collins explains, not only will developing speed help you play better with others... it can also be used as a diagnostic tool. Why? Because "The faster you play on a banjo, the more your technique has to be sorted..."
In this lesson, Tom shares three ways to improve your speed on the banjo. Then he takes you through a series of exercises that take you from moderate to fast tempos, so you can see the adaptations that have to happen as you "climb the tempo ladder."
