Altho playing party guitar for ages, in the last 2 years have discovered a fascination (addiction) to stringed instruments. You'd think I would have been more careful with a sausage mincer and my left index fingertip but there ya go. Anyhoos, I am just loving Clawhammer/Frailing. Lots of lessons for free on Youtube, downloaded heaps ya'll are very generous. Thank God for Wednesday Jam Nite here in the Matakana Hills. Anyone up this way please call in, us Mountain people don't bite. Kinda sorry I jumped in and got a Samick Asian knockoff two weeks ago, but it is fulfilling a need and sounding like a banjo. Dear Wifey hasn't said she's sick of Old Joe Clark just yet..
Update...now have two banjos and do a lot of busking for charity when the weather and lawns suit. Drop thumbing practice and Molly Tuttle amongst others. Clawhammer banko ululele some, and LOVIN ma mountain music. Beard's gone, most of the hair, eyes tattooed in back of my head. Love banjo above all other instruments...did I make that clear?
