Lil Neo;

Don't be upset by these guitar players, Isn't it just awful that some guy has to hold a female shaped instrument that he can strum with his fingers to feel sexy as his mind runs to exagerations.

Now having a banjo in your grasp is like having a lean mean playing machine that needs control. Either male or female.

And with that I think I will go back to work

PICTURE THIS ~~ It is a warm late spring evening, there is a full moon and you decide to visit your girl friend. You go over to her house, ~ stand by the white picket fence. ~ toss a pebbel on her upstairs window. She opens the window and ...... you pull out your 5 string banjo and launch into "Foggy Mt. Breakdown". (now that would certainly win her heart).

Of course if you are in to OLD TIMEY you might want to try something like "Shoot the Turkey Buzzard". A tenor banjo player may play something like "Waiting For The Sunrise".

Sailor Dan ~~ when you are my age the guitar thing is about as good as it gets. I should probably confess that I also play 5 string and tenor banjo's. There are some really beautiful tunes that can be played on the banjo if you don't try to tame them by beating them to death.

Hey Capt Bob

Are you older then Methuselah,, I must be near that age and believe me, sometimes you have to tame the stallion to have contol. You dont lose anything by gaining control and the fire is still there even though you make real sweet sounds. Even sneaks out once in a while.

But instead of Foggy Mt, you could play, We'll meet again sweetheart, or Greensleeves or the flower of mexico, or Wheels, or Raindrops keep falling on my head. Lots of sweet things.

They tell me this drum with a stick nailed to it can really make sweet sounds.

I think the range of expression available on guitar is much wider. Try playing a convincing version of Bessame' Mucho or The Girl from Ipanema on banjo....see what I mean? Now, when it comes to Turkey in the Straw, I admit the banjo wins hands down. But have you ever heard of using Turkey in the Straw to coax somebody into the sack? I mean, outside of Catspaw using it on the local girls when he was at Berea?

There is a good and quite telling article in the current issue of THE OLD TIME HERALD (Vol. 7, No. 4, Summer 2000 that asks many musicians about their first instruments and how they remember those. Even the banjo players and the fiddlers and the mandolin players ("mannolin" as Bill Monroe used to call it) remembered a GUITAR with more affection than the instrument on which they achived their notoriety. Even old $10.00 STELLA guitars, like my first one, were mentioned with great fondness and nostalgia. Many of the reasons are similar to ones posted in this thread.

The article by Gail Gillespie is titled MUSICAL AFFAIRS OF THE HEART : OLD TIME GUITAR TALES. There will be other articles in future issues with the other instruments as the star, but the guitar was just about everyone's first instrument and therefore seems uppermost in folks' minds and hearts.

McGrath ~ I'm sorry that I failed to use the scientific approach on the "Ukulele". I have five uke's and two of them rate right down there with the banjo ~ both the pineapple shape and the banjo shape are ZERO'S sex appeal. However, my NOBILITY UKE measures in with a:

7/10 Chest ~~~~ and a 7.5/10 hips

according to the formula the Nobility Uke has the most sexy shape of all of my instruments.

There seem to be a lot of banjo players out there who are stallion "tamers". I actually wonder how many of you have ever attempted to "tame" a stallion?

I have owned six horses over the past several years. The 2nd happiest day of my life was when we bought horses for the kids. The HAPPIEST DAY of my life was when we got rid of the last horse. BANJO PLAYERS TAKE THIS TO HEART maybe the happiest day of your life lies ahead.

As a horse owner, YOU should know that you dont tame a stallion, you learn to control him. As a controller the happiest day of your life is the day you ride him under control knowing full well that all hell could and would break loose if you relinquish that control.

Just like a banjo and a boat, all full of piss and vinegar but thoroughly enjoyable under control

Of course I do Little Neophyte ~ actually all men do this but do not tell their wives about it. To keep it a secret we use the hands to do the measuring. The span (about 4 inches) is the distance across the palm of the hand. The inch is the width of the thumb. six inches is the distance from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the little finger. By moving the hand around a bit a feller can get all of these measurements and the wife never has a clue about whats going on.

Simple question. Just imagine to be IN THE PLACE OF THAT INSTUMENT, regardless whether you're male or female. A banjo is a thing hanging from someone's neck. A guitar may be too but often it is hugged...EMBRACED...FROM BEHIND(!!!) Forget about the shape - that is only to make it more comfortable.

To guitar players: ever tried to handle someone the same way you handle your guitar? You can try the western style with its (her/his) waist on your right knee (easier to beginners) or the spanish style on your left knee (more acrobatic). Maybe it's not a good idea to use a bottleneck. DO NOT USE A CAPODASTER! Prefer fingerpicking to plectrum techiques but consider using picks (some like it harder).

A joke? I'm absolutely not sure. To me girls with cellos are very sexy (even when I see them carrying their instruments on their backs) and I remember of getting a little jealous when I saw my girl friend falling in love with a bassist (she ignored the guitar player completely). Just see that from the point of view I explained above...

Also, learning to play the guitar mostly urges you to learn singing, too, and that ist an additional factor. A guitar enables you to perform a song alone, without any additional accompaniment, a banjo much less. A banjo is played from inside a band, and only in bluegrass music its player is the 'primus inter pares'.

YES, Irish Rover, I think you see what I was trying to explain. The question "Why are guitars SEXY and banjos not" means "Why do we think being touched like a guitar is the right way to do it, and why can't the guitar be replaced by a banjo?". WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE? This difference seems obvious to me for guitars and banjos. Personally I notice an even stronger effect with cellos: A girl with a cello transfers to me an impression of ACTIVE tenderness without any bitchy allusion, and that is what really works. (That doesn't mean I object to girls behaving bitchy when they seem to do it with their heart - this works nearly the same way.) I was completely confused by Mbo mentioning saxophones because (TO ME!) there is also a difference between a girl playing a saxophone and a girl playing a clarinet, and I am unable to figure out, why. Well, this might be a very a quite personal impression, but are there people who share it or similar ones? And is there something common that applies to the difference between guitars and banjos, saxophones and clarinets or whatever? Can I learn from musical instruments how humans want to be touched? Even better: how to tell humans that I want to touch them the right way?

ah...indeed...touch & technique mean more than which instrument..Think about a banjo being frailed,,,then about some gentle, tasteful melody pickin'...Then imagine a guitar being whanged in some beginners version of "The Sloop John B", as opposed to a soft, finger picked love song where the fingers sort of caress the strings...Even a properly done mandolin vibrato can be quite sensual....

Mhm, Bill D, I think you are on the right way to do some music of the kind I'm interested in if you just remember that it's not speed that does the trick but the feeling ;). (By the way - what is triple-tounging? I'm a guitar player so how should I know?) However, what you are saying is confusing me again. You don't change the instrument, you change the final result. Is a guitar more sexy than a banjo BEFORE you play it or AFTERWARDS - i.e. once you know what music can be done to/with it?

Non sequitur, Hilary (I'm trying HTML now, let's see how it works). A bodhran is just an example that being beaten does not always mean being touched wrong. (Oww!! I can only hope that I'm not beaten for this myself.)

( Let's quit joking for a moment:

There's rhytm but there's also RHYTM! Some are quite easy but there are some you have to put your whole soul into just to avoid to be as boring as so much else, and when the conditions are wrong and you can't get the right feeling at that very moment you will fail. I've seen bodhran players BENDING OVER their instruments in deep concentration, CARESSING them with their left hand, needing their WHOLE STRENGTH to keep their right hand moving, and I saw ECSTASY on their faces when they experienced MANAGING THE PROBLEM by that. Would have been much sexier if they just had been female.

Back to joking now: )

Guest, Hilary,

What's so sicko about the headstone thread? Hardly anybody took it as an opportunity to take the Ebenezer Scrooge route and think about changing their lives so that it's reflected on their headstone. The way some folks act nowadays, it seems they think little about how they will be remembered and memorialized. That aside, 100 responses ain't nothing compared to this thread...

I prefer guitars, but that's me. I once had brief possession of an Orpheum tenor banjo with the sexiest fingerboard inlay that really turned my crank, and a hide head that felt divine. Shoulda kept it.

Peace, Mooh.
