Glad to see this group. 53 and never played an instrument until 2 weeks ago. Decided the banjo was a new way of life. :-)

When the legs match, the head is too big. I am coming along. Working with the new edition of the Scruggs book. Very sneaky book. Suddenly you are playing bits of Cripple Creek. Motivation is not a problem, unfortunately I have been sick the last week so have no practiced like I should be.
