Greetings Neighbor,
I was just looking at your page the other day. I remember seeing something about a banjo build. How did that go, or is it still in the works. Glad to see you back, although you were actually here before me. Seeing someone else from Oregon posting is pretty cool.
Just curious, you mentioned putting something together along the lines of Bela Fleck. Were you refering to more of the Jazz type stuff with the Flecktones like left of cool for example or his early bluegrass type stuff or the more celtic type stuff from say inroads? Either way... Would love hearing anything you put together. Especially with Bela as an influence. Man... what an incredible banjo player... incredible musican. I read an interview where he credits Earl Scruggs doing the "Beverly Hillbillies" theme as getting him hooked on banjo. I actually found that to be pretty interesting. Although, you can hardly blame him... Earl Scruggs is an incredible banjo player.
Peace
