Sax is my primary instrument, but I have been fiddling with banjo (4 and 5 string) for several years, learning on my own. Recently I met a good banjo teacher and have begun lessons. What a difference. I'm learning so many important "little things" that are really fundamental and therefore not "little." These things don't show up in the do-it-yourself books and YouTube tutorials. Bottom line: get yourself a teacher if you're just getting started. There's no substitute.
