I like it

Thanks Silent Jim and Maddog. The cool thing about playing backwards is I have to leave out a lot of stuff and it sounds better that way. There's a lesson for me in there somewhere!

Man Jim, I have to go along with Clock. I ain't never heard a banjee sound that good, ever.

Thanks FatBoy! The good news is that the guy I made this for saw the clip and liked the banjo so I just gotta get it to Charlottesville and it's sold! My wife says the only reason I sell 'em so quick is that I don't ask enough. As long as the parts are paid for plus a little for my labors then I'm happy!

Color me impressed!!!

Thanks Wes & RTZ. Yeah if Jimi was still around he'd probably be playing banjo. Him and Taj Mahal would be a good duo!

that sounds great jim and Jimi would approve

Thanks Clock. Do you know the difference between a banjo and an onion? Nobody cries when you chop up a banjo!  But I did like the way this one turned out.
