I’m always emailing myself links with good deals and info. But then, a brilliant idea: Why not put all that useful stuff in one spot, where it can help other folks? Think of it like retail hacking, but with that special banjo flair.

This group will be a resource for folks who're looking for:

local and online banjo-related sales
bulk strings
how to make your $200 banjo sound like a $500 banjo (or your $500 banjo sound like a $1000 banjo)
how to fix your tuning pegs (because we like to save money, even if it's just $25 bucks)
other DIY repairs/upgrades
getting instructional books on the cheap (or free!)

and anything else related to making an expensive habit slightly more affordable.

Welcome!
