Do you have …or maybe planning to do a lesson on Gold Rush?

If I am not mistaken Goldrush is still in copyright in which case it may be a while till @BanjoBen creates a lesson. In the meantime you may care to check out this guy.

Jam session favorite from Byron Berline and Bill Monroe! Love to play banjo on it.

Gold Rush is one that keeps on coming up at jams, and I am tired of having to “pass” on it. Does anybody know if there is a banjo tab for Gold Rush somewhere? I know there were once guitar and mando lessons that were eventually removed due to copyright concerns. I’ve found some other lessons on youtube and such, but I feel like Ben’s arrangements have a nice balance between sounding good and not being super difficult to play. I wanted to see if there is a Banjo Ben tab out there somewhere.

Hi @Shad there are a bunch of arrangements over on the Banjo Hangout. If you scroll to the bottom of the list there is one listed as having all three parts.
