Grab your canjo and get picking, with this treasure trove of over 115 beloved, well-known songs! Playing these songs is easier than you ever believed, just follow the numbers above the words in the easy-to-play canjo tablature format. This 60-page song book was designed and printed at C. B. Gitty, with all tablature arranged by Ben "Gitty" Baker. We even include a page on how to read the tablature and play your canjo, and links to more canjo-related resources online!
Here is a sample of the tablature style:
(Each number above the word corresponds to which fret you should finger on the canjo's fretboard. A zero (0) means plug the string open/unfretted.) Please note that this book replaces our two previous 60-page canjo songbooks (Volume 1 and 2), with some extra bonus songs added as well. You can still download the PDF versions of the original songbook volume one here: Volume 1 Download
