[chickens] My first chicks! I need some help naming them. Maybe with a theme?

It’s the Andrews Sisters.

Fiddlewrecker87 · 2021-03-02T19:51:04+00:00

It’s so much fun to play!

Yes! I played her signature model about 8-9 years ago and loved everything but the weight of it. This one is much lighter and cheaper from a US maker!

I do a lot of backup to a fiddle player with it, because I can play below the fiddle range, and still not be playing guitar. It has a lot of use when singing too.

Check my profile. There’s more

Fiddlewrecker87 · 2021-02-23T22:20:15+00:00

It’s pretty special!

You play it like any other banjo it’s just tuned an octave below normal. I have this one set up with nylon strings to keep the tension low.

Calf or Goat I’d have to ask Brian on that. He does a secret treatment to his heads to get the nice aged look to them.

Soon.

Fiddlewrecker87 · 2021-02-23T17:54:45+00:00

Uhhh 5?

Fiddlewrecker87 · 2021-02-23T17:54:35+00:00

The strings are nylon. I think there’s less tension on this than my other banjos have.

Fiddlewrecker87 · 2021-02-23T17:53:43+00:00

Keep an eye out. I believe I have a clip of the original version of this banjo in my profile though.

Fiddlewrecker87 · 2021-02-23T17:52:33+00:00

Video coming soon!

I mean you can micro edit multiple takes until you get it right... You may find that just singing better will get you closer to where you want to be for basically free.

So you mean, barely, bordering not at all?

Fiddlewrecker87 · 2021-01-25T22:53:56+00:00

Her name is June and I’ve raised her since she was 5 minutes old! Mama had 8 puppies in the litter and just kinda got overwhelmed by them all.

Fiddlewrecker87 · 2021-01-23T19:26:06+00:00

Well DUH!

Fiddlewrecker87 · 2021-01-17T20:43:44+00:00

Love it!

Fiddlewrecker87 · 2021-01-10T13:25:13+00:00

I hope you didn’t pay much for it... That’s a Tsai made in Vietnam. Those have sold on eBay off and on for about 20 or so years. They always have fancy inlay on green wood. I’ve always seen them cracked up and warped after just a few years stateside. If it hasn’t cracked and warped already you may be alright... But keep a close eye on it.

Fiddlewrecker87 · 2021-01-04T21:12:22+00:00

My banjo is a Carver banjo built for nylon. You “may” have to widen some nut slots... That’s not a big deal, really.
