I've been playing bluegrass banjo in the Scruggs/Crowe tradition since I was 15. I've played with several professional touring bands, but now just play for fun. My first banjo was an original 1981 Gold Star GF100-FE which I still own/play and love. I also own a 1981 Gold Star GF20JD Crowe Model, a 1926 Gibson TB-5 flathead, a 2005 Huber-Jim Mills Model RB-75 and a 2004 Huber VRB-3 Wreath.
