Subject: RE: Beginner banjo - advice please
Guy beat me to it ! Nothing worse than (as I have seen happen) a guy asks in a shop about Banjo , and is sold a Five String when he wants to be Barney MacKenna !!
And far too many shops have NO idea how a banjo should be set up , so try Music Room in Oxford - The Shop Manager is a bloody good banjo player .
And a GOOD used instrument is a better bet than a cheap new one .
And Good Luck and ignore the Banjo Jokes !
