Poor Man's Banjo

For all you wannabe banjer players

I’d love to see all you geetar players pick out a tune with your own Poor Man’s Banjo. I am sure it would provide lot’s of fun. Maybe @BanjoBen and his sisters the Purple Hulls @Jake & @AdamAsh could come up with a crazy theme tune.

@Archie When I saw the guitar I thought you were going somewhere else with that. I used to take my little Martin and remove the 5th and 6th strings and replace the 5th string with the same gauge as the 1st string. Then I’d tune the 5th string up to a G. That allowed me to practice “banjo” without irritating my wife too much (I had to think of other ways to irritate her).

What gave you the idea to do this? This looks like something that I might think of doing after I take my nightly dose of ambien. :slight_smile:

I just stumbled on the video on YouTube, thought it a bit of fun to post it here.
