Nice Foggy Mountain Breakdown. Its one of my current favorites to try and get my clumsy fingers to pick.

Wonderful build. Great tone! Some mighty fine pickin' too. Take her round the block a few more times! Thanks for sharing. Enjoy.

Jim,
I built the instrument 37 yrs ago... not sure how old the box is?

Very, very nice playing, Hamhock.

Just flat out nice!!! Thanks for the post... Was the box 37years old or was the instrument built 37 years ago?

Yeah!!! It's a wooden box, but sounds like a banjo to me.
