Hey folks,  finish up those song commitments!   We're all anxious for this completed album.   Thanks to Merle and thanks for keeping it home made.

Good advice, Unk. Also, glad to see the guys not putting up the songs before the album is out on 1st August. Lots of excitement goes out of Nation albums (in my view), when lots of the songs are heard before release date :)

Jamie here 4 string tenor banjo's are called Irish tenors for some reason and here they are around 19 to 20 inch scale is that about what they use on factory tenors made there ? I'm am liking this scale more and more for cbg's.

That's the scale I use for my baritone ukulele. But probably not relevant to your question.

Hi, RTZ. Don't know much about tenor banjos. Got an old factory  five string , as well as the CB one from Anthony. The tinjo/canjo by  jabes, I think of as a 4 string guitar or Uke.  It has a good, clear sound, and I use it as rhtymm guitar on "Senor", my song for BD album.:)

I recognised that there banjo as the work of Anthony. At last year's Boxstock he played some ace claw hammer on a similarly lovely instrument. It's interesting how those that build guitars, banjos and the like, make them in a certain way and with identifiable designs.
