Thread Name: What is a Plectrum Banjo?
Subject: RE: What is a Plectrum Banjo?
Er G'day again! The moving finger writes and, having writ,
Reads not but witless ... strikes “Submit ...”
And not all my profanity (much less wit)
Can lure it back to cancel half a word: - Oh ...!

Yeah, well sorry about the typo ... and the miss(plac)ed slash in the HTML ... failing to cancel the bolding.

Hey Max - while you are working on that spell checker ... can you devise an HTML previewer?

Also, to the phantom poster of the McClure Phillips' Music Lover's Encyclopedia; a banjo playing friend showed me some old (~1890s) English sheet music for the banjo - with arrangements for instruments of 4, 5, 6, 7, 9 and 11 strings!

Regard(les)s,

Bob Bolton
