Well, hello, Jeep. I thought this was a case of "What if we posted a thread and nobody came?" The problem is not playing it as a guitar; the problem is in playing it as a dobro.

What's the advantage of banjo tuning going to be?? Then I just have to re-learn chords for that tuning. Besides, if I can play it in banjo tuning, why can't I play it in guitar tuning?

Take yer time; it's been a long day of computer frustrations and I'm "ottahere."
