Player since the late 60s, proprietor of www.pensonstringwerks.com. <br>Online and in house lessons in the North Texas area. <br> Fell in love with the banjo as a kid listening to my brother's New Christy Minstrels albums, but the first time I saw Douglas Dillard leaning in a doorway playing "Doug's Tune" at about 220 bpm, looking like he was about to fall asleep, I fell under the thrall. I think I owned a 50 dollar banjo within a week. I'm largely influenced by his playing, as well as Alan Munde's. I make and repair instruments - banjos, guitars, and mandos, mostly, with the occacional fiddle, but banjos are the main focus. Thinking of branching out into dreadnoughts. Thanks for reading!
