It sounds good on the demos included on the Web site linked above by Mr. Happy, part of which, of course, is because it is being played well. I'm concerned that in the absence of the "extra" notes thata are lost in simplifying the keyboard would result in music that lacks subtlety. But then, I'm a sucker for weird banjos.

Did anyone pick up on the offer, in the linked site here, for a free banjo just for completing an online survey? I don't usually believe in offers for free stuff, but I'd go for this one if someone could vouch for the offer.
