Hello! We here at Country Instruments are dedicated to teaching and discussing how to play Country and Western music and the types of instruments and styles used in creating this unique musical sound.
We’ve prepared a whole lotta exclusive material about country music and how to play it right. From Banjos to Dobros and from Harmonicas to Mandolins, you’ve found your one stop resource for detailed information on these unique instruments and how they combine to produce the sound we love. Yee haw!
Country music was first produced in the 1920’s and therefore, we have now reached over 100 years of country music twangin’. Our blog is here to share our experience and communicate with other passionate people interested in the country genre.
As you can see, we’re avid fans and even, to some extent, experts in the world of country music! We hope you enjoy what we do. Feel free to contact us if you have any queries.

Singer & Author
I am authentically a true country girl at heart. I have only desired to sing one style of music. I have never wavered, in spite of disappointments, delays, rejections, and detours.
Banjo & Author
I’m Jack Little – an avid country music fan with tons of live country performances in the past. I used to play banjo in a country band with my best friend John Peters, who’s a true country harmonica master. Those were great years and I’m still mastering new banjo playing techniques, writing my own country songs and lyrics, and collecting banjos!
Harmonica & Author
My name is John Peters, and I’m a co-founder and Jack’s and Tayo’s co-editors. My country sole was born when I was not more than 4 years old and my dad brought several country records home. These were the records by Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Asleep at The Wheel, and Neil Young. I fell in love with the genre forever back then. Before entering the university, I managed to gather a collection of over 1200 vinyl records with both classic and modern country releases.
