Neat.  I messed around with my sister's banjo once and really enjoyed it.

Re: Temporary NGD/NBD

I see one big problem here........ If you fall in love with one or both of the instruments you are up the creek without a paddle, you could end up needing psychiatric help, so please be careful.

Zurf, your post really made me laugh!!  My grandmother is always coming up with creative words for body parts  and "banjo" is her word for butt. Like, she would say, "You kids behave or I'll slap you all on the banjo!" Or, "Get off you banjo and get to work!"  So when you said you
messed around with your sister's banjo, I just about died giggling.

LOL M.B.  You can rest assured that the banjo I messed around with had five strings instead of two cheeks.

Strummin on the ol banjo.

I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.
