I started out playing Scruggs style but took up Clawhammer about 3 yrs later. In the early 1990's I started exploring Classic style and then in the early 2000's, I started on Stroke style. Along the way I have picked up Irish Trad (tenor banjo) and lately I've been exploring a bit of jazz on the plectrum banjo.

I'd say I play mostly Classic fingerstyle with a good bit of Clawhammer and Stroke style thrown in. I rarely dig out the BG banjo or the tenor any more.

Now that I'm doing some stuff on mandolin, I'm trying the tunes out on tenor tuned the same as the mando. At the jam I switch around - guitar, banjo, mandolin. Talk about no style!
