Get all of the tabs from the first two years of Kyle's Banjo Club for one low price! There are over 400 high quality banjo tabs included. Each month comes in a separate pdf.

If you purchase this bundle now, you'll receive future additions for free!

All songs are listed below with the original year, the source, and the banjo tuning. If there is an asterisk, that means it's one of my original banjo arrangements. Otherwise, it's most likely a transcription of a piece of historical banjo repertoire originally published in standard notation. Mp3s of each song are included.
