I am now the proud owner of a Baldwin Ode model C. I was able to trade with another member who wanted one of my Martin guitars. I am amazed and delighted with this banjo. I spent the evening earlier this week jamming with some friends and playing either this or my Stelling Whitestar. They are very different and wonderful instruments. I love them both. Both are 70's instruments, the Ode has had a whole lot more use than the Stelling. Both really cut through the guitars etc. I now understand why these banjos have been so much prized by folk.
I have been trying out a "Beaver Bridge" from Dave Jack in Ontario, Canada. I like it.
Not much else - happy fourth of July.

Congrats on your new acquisition. Sounds like a fair trade for both of you.
