Subject: RE: Help: 5-String Banjo in Oz?
I think you'll need to be careful about using a local 5 string in OZ. You'll find, owing to the gravitational pull of the moon and opposing wind currents that the fifth string is placed on the opposite side of the neck. It seems a bit strange, but if you play in front of a mirror for a few days, your brain will make the transposition - and it'll be smooth sailing from there on out.
