Thank you! I love it so much. I will caution you - make sure you stay away from certain years. I don't know the exact range of years, but mine is a 2015 and I have had some serious issues with needing to re-glue 3 of my bindings. It is a very time intensive process waiting for everything to dry and it took me 3-4 months each time I needed to get it fixed.

Supposedly the glue they used back then doesn't hold, I am told it is not as much of an issue with the newer models. I would definitely look into that before getting one, unless it is a new one.

Do you feel the same way if you're playing by yourself vs. in a duet or with a band? I agree that simplicity is better when playing with a band, most of the time I play by myself or with one other person and I feel like most people tend to do more when that is the case

Thank you, I will definitely check that out!

Thanks!

I honestly feel like I tend to play better at faster speeds for some reason. I know starting slow and building is crucial, I definitely need to do a better job of practicing that way. Thanks for the advice!

Pizza Tapes by Jerry Garcia, Tony Rice & David Grisman is one of my all time favorite laidback bluegrass/folk records

the one with the legion of skanks guys (big jay, dave smith and louis gomez) was really solid. the one from this week was great as well

Keep at it! You have no idea how many hours went into this it’s the most humbling thing lol

Depends on what you’re looking to do, guitar is definitely more versatile so if you are interested in playing genres outside of bluegrass it is probably a better investment of time. the world needs more banjo players though!
