Pete Peterson Lookin' fer a banjo (8) RE: Lookin' fer a banjo 01 Dec 99


Instuments are so much a matter of personal taste that it's hard to give specific advice. I hope you will go to a music shop (are you somewhere in FL as one might infer from your nick?) and play all the old banjos and a few new ones until you find the one that won't let go. Match the instrument and the way it sounds to YOU. If you play mianly clawhammer, jo77's offer sounds very good to me! if you are a Scruggs'style then that Deering. . . that was a wonderful recommendation I read there! At that level of investment it might even be worth it to go to the factory shop! Good Luck PETE
