Back at it!

Saturday, September 8, 2007

Recently returned to the 5 string after too many years

of guitar and mando. One son has become a very good mando player and the other son is very good on guitar. I messed around with the fiddle but my ears could not take if!

i bought a Morgan Monroe and it is not like my old RB 250 that I sold some years ago.

Looking for  decent banjo. Gibson vs Stelling. I would appreciate any input from you kind souls.

Thanks,
