playing guitar since" the great 50's folk scare". I thought it was time I added banjo...playing banjo now for 20 years with long neck and harp strings with highgrass tuning... weird! but it works for me...played guitar/banjo with the Classmate Trio for 14 years until we retired...now, I just jam with 7 or 8 fellow semi-pro musicians and beat on my 4, 5 or 8 strings. I fell in with some ukulele players and now I'm ruined.
