Thread Name: Should I buy this banjo?
Subject: RE: Should I buy this banjo?
Thanks to you, too, Dave and Rick! Hmm... this thread seems to have juggled its posts around!

I've poked around the 'net a bit, looking at the Gold Tone models, and now I'm wondering about resonators (particularly on the MC-150 model Gold Tone). It doesn't appear that a resonator is available for the MM-150 specifically; I'm not sure that it would be proper to put a resonator on that style of banjo anyway... or that I'd even want one in the first place. If you're not playing bluegrass, do you even need one?

(Please forgive the dumb questions; I hadn't thought seriously about the subject until my friends lent me this banjo yesterday, so I'm trying to take the crash course here! Thanks for being patient with me.)
