I have no idea about strings, but I do know I love a banjo. I like it when one is featured as a 'solo' in a group. What a joy and unique sound.But from the neophyte on strings, 'ats a lot of strings! Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/ |

The only thing about banjo's are those who play them limit their knowledge so after about three songs , the songs all sound the same.Kind of like a didgeridoo dowww.youtube.com/watch?v=XHSRv4Hsxn0 |

I've played one once, but most serious banjo players see them as a way for us guitar players to cheat, and not really learn the banjo... So be mindful of your street cred... ---------My Facebook www.facebook.com/theB3 |

One more point , I heard a banjo player play a jazz version of Misty that was absolutely beautiful. Thats because he used minors , diminished , flatted 5ths plus more.Heres a banjo with bass Thats pretty good.www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRV9ZxL2WGw |

This reminds me of a conversation my parents had about one of my uncles. He was a Baptist preacher and skilled on the banjo when he was younger. When I knew him, he had legionnaires disease or something similar to it and wasn't very agile. I remember my dad telling a story that happened to him. He won an amateur banjo competition and Lester Flat, who was no longer working with Earl Scruggs, asked him to come play for him. I believe the reason he said no was because he didn't want to give up the ministry. My dad told that story probably when I was a young teenager, and my mom acted surprised and said she'd never heard that before.Then years later, my dad told the same story, and my mom said basically the same thing, that she'd never heard that before. I probably should have had a conversation about that with my uncle. He has passed away since then.This wasn't the uncle who played on the same stage with Johnny Cash, Elvis, Patsy Cline, etc. before they were that famous, and who was also friends with George Jones |

LOL We had a youngin P&W leader that felt compelled to write his own songs. When a new one came up, I already knew how it would sound.Different song, same melody. Seems bluegrass isn't the only genre that sound awfully repetitive. |
