New Randy Wood guitars :)

Timothy and I just got new guitars hand-built for us by Randy Wood and we’re loving them! Would love to hear what you all think.

Man, really punchy and great note separation. Great improv too!

Thanks! We’re both really impressed with how equally strong the low and high ends are. They definitely punch well.

They definitely cut well. If you come to SPBGMA you can try it!

I probably won’t have my guitar but Libby should. Are you gonna be there? By then you should have your new D28 :grin:

Lord willing I will be there at least in the afternoon!

I really need to start actually practicing for that.

I do not dance

I do a heel click, which is not a dance. And I only do it because they make me. And the audience does indeed love it so I guess it’s brilliant or something like that

@Mason_Crone hey whatever they’re paying you for.

They clog and after they finish their clogging number they had their old banjo player do the sprinkler to make the audience laugh and then when I took over we tried that but it looked weird on me (it looks weird on everyone but it looked wrong on me apparently) and they gave me other options including the moonwalk but the heel click was the easiest and least embarrassing one. Never thought coming up with a goofy move would be the toughest part of a banjo gig… :rofl:

A good candidate for a caption contest?!! “Now THAT’s one catchy click!” :joy:
