Sonny,
I tried twice to send the BIAB file and it did not work for some unknown reason.
Do this: use style C_JETHRO.STY and insert these chords,one chord per measure. G G Em G
Em G D G
and set the play loop for 8 bars.
Don

Actually, I think this might work better. Each chord is one measure.

Droopy, your chart is in 2/4 time (2 beats per measure) which is common for bluegrass and technically right for FMB. However, most of the BIAB styles are in 4/4 time (including their Bluegrass styles) so the user would probably enter the chords as Don listed them above.

One confusion with BIAB is that each bar is divided into 2 sections, beats 1,2 and then beats 3,4. There's no need to enter a chord name into beats 3 & 4 of a bar if they are the same as beats 1 & 2.

Maybe I should clarify that each chord in the chord chart I posted gets 4 beats. It could be written in 2/4 as Doug says but I've always preferred to think in 4s.

Anyway, my chords will not work with the C-Jethro Style. I created my own style for banjo practice. It's just bass and mandolin chops - in groups of 4.
