| − | Bluegrass banjo requires the player to play a series of complex patterns, picking individual strings in quick succession, emphasizing the notes of the melody. This style was developed in the early [[20th Century]] by bluegrass musician [[Earl Scruggs]]. It is more common in the united states than clawhammer, but it much more technically difficult.
