Thanks AGP!  (Rev. Denim!   I see what you did there!)  ;-)

Yep - canjos are just flat out fun.  Pickin' out tunes isn't all that tough, and you do learn some basics of playing.  Much less intimidating than a regular 6 string (or even a 3 or 4 string CBG) to a non-player.   In fact, my wife has taken to calling canjos and diddley bows a 'gateway drug' to CBGs!!  ;-)

Might not be a bad idea though. Extra teeth etc. I only have two teeth left. Maybe I could keep my mouth shut.

Good point, Dave!   I'll be extra careful!
