Thread Name: Longneck banjo
Subject: RE: Longneck banjo
Right now I am mostly playing on my Goodtime Deering because I find it easier to learn to frail on.
Although I have currently put my Longneck aside, I know soon I will pick it up again too. I love how Pete Seeger plays the banjo and when I listen to his tunes it is quite meaningful for me to learn those same tunes on the longneck that Pete would have played.
I think eventually I would like to reassemble my bluegrass banjo. I took the resonator off it to give it that old time open back sound. Right now my resonator is being used as a serving dish. But eventually I would like all three banjos by my side so that I can play different styles of music and appreciate them on appropriate banjos.
