The March issue of Silver Strings – a banjo “ezine” for new pickers getting started later in life – is now available online. The publication is meant to be roughly equal parts informational, instructional and motivational, with a new issue released monthly. Silver Strings can be downloaded in either a DNL (Windows “ezine”), or a more generic PDF format.

The March 2006 issue features an article about approaching your first jam sessions, a rundown on the recent Banjo Cruise, a first hand report on learning the banjo after age 80, and a very funny essay by publisher Angie Sumpter about one of her prized Shelor finger picks landing on the roof!
