You won’t be swimming in the banjo world for too long before you drift off in Salt Creek, and this is the cannonball of all versions. This break has it all…Scruggs style, melodic runs, chromatic licks, and single string switcharoos. You might wanna put on the ol’ life jacket at first, but it won’t be long before you’re doing back strokes in this one.

Love the arpeggios!

Lol, I find it quite entertaining visiting you on here in your youth after I met you a month ago, 13 years after you did this. By the way, what kind of banjo are you pickin. by the way I love these licks.

That’s actually the first banjo I had built for me. Wasn’t a great banjo but I sure put a lot of miles on it! Built by an old redneck here in east Texas, under a pine tree. It literally had pine needle patterns in the resonator b/c they fell on the banjo after he lacquered it.
