  1. Can you read it? Yes

    Can you figure out the fingering? Yes

    Can you tell me what scale/chord/type? Maybe, I believe it to be a C diminished.

    Can you play it? Yes

    Sound “hip” or “weird”? Little weird.

    Worth my time? Yes

    1. Aced it! I don’t want to respond any deeper until I’ve heard from a few others. Thanks for playing!

  2. Ron, I am on holidays for a couple of weeks and banjo-less, but I will try this when i get back home in mid-February.

    Will

    1. I will have revealed the answers by then, so just don’t open part 2 until you’re ready!

  3. 1) yes, but the 2flats are little confusing at first sight. After second reading its OK.
    2)I have found the one on the fifth position and than move 3 frets in next measure, etc. What is the second best?
    3)Cdim, Ebdim …….
    4)Yes, after practising. Need to accustom my ear.
    5)Yes. I am looking for everything, that helps me to play solos, and not only straight fours in the rhythm section. Thank You for doing this.

    1. Lukas; #2: You can also do it on the 1st fret, 2nd string, moving up 3 frets in each measure. I will be posting Part 2 soon with TAB to show fingerings. #4: It does stretch the ear a bit! Thank you for your answers!
