Thanks for the ideas. I play 3 finger with picks and clawhammer without in the same show on the same banjo. I have always felt a bit more relaxed with the openback. It's light weight, and because it has no resonator it dosent stick out nearly as far, so my wrist isn't as bent when I play. So I'd like to find an openback that feels like an openback but has a lot of kick like my a bluegrass banjo. It's a pipe dream I know... I have heard of the internal resonator banjos, do those dound louder, or just different?
