    Hey Ads any idea on ballpark price for a banjo?

    The one I saw (5 string full size) would sell around $150.

    A guy at our church is threatening to learn banjo "one day" - now if I had one - he'd have no excuse not to learn.

    Yep, there's a "secret banjo player" inside of every guitarist ... the only difference is that some of us are brave enough (or nuts enough) to admit it and some aren't ...

    I know's Ads is an admitted fan ... but despite his protestations otherwise, I can just imagine DB "plunk-a-plunk"-ing on his hidden bass-banjo when he thinks no-one's looking ... (oh, maybe I shouldn't have said that until after he's finished mixing up my Dingotone "Grrr-orange" for me! )


    Wait a minute ... that sounds like Rock and/or Roll!

    SG-1 ... "Little Miss" finished in Flamenco Cherry Wudtone
    TL-1A ... "Slugger" finished in Antique White Nitro
    EX-1 ... "Metal God" finished in nickel-plate (work in progress)
    ST-1A ... "Scrapper" stained and finished in linseed oil ... and with the "secret weapon"
    GR-1SF ... "Rocker-billy" (just arrived, work in progress)

    yer I think you are onto something there Scott, I reckon DB quietly may have a banjo bass hidden that he secretly pulls out now and then !

    These "classics" have to be hiding somewhere ... are we sure that DB doesn't have one (or more) hidden away!

    ... in fact, maybe with a collar and tie ... (do you think there might be more than just a passing similarity?)

    ... but I'm sure he doesn't have the legs for a "flapper's" dress

    haha nice one Scott, odds are very high that DB has one of these (or more) tucked away out of sight ! These are too big to hide behind his Hartke bass amp !
