For quite a while I had a Guitjo, or Bantar, whatever you want to call it! A six string banjo tuned liked a guitar. A total cheat.

One day I sold it and vowed I'd get the real thing - which I did when I was stocking the studio. It's only a cheap Fender (yes, they make banjos and ukuleles!) but it's fine for recording. I've only used it on one song so far and even then only for a few bars.

I had a long-neck 5 string banjo when I was a teen. Back then I was a pretty mean finger-picker but I seem to have forgotten it all these days.

Dave, ha, I can't remember where we got that thing. Wait, I think all of the instruments were pulled from Toby's eclectic collection of playable things, not that any of us could play the banjo.

Tom and Sara, thanks, working hard on these! Wish I could post faster, but no time.

Reading this has me stirred up and captivated! And it makes me miss writing. You tell a story well.
