Looking somewhat like the monolith from 2001:A Space Odessey my banjola arrived in a big box from Denver this past Friday. I unpacked it and started playing it in between making dinner! It's an all round beauty! Sounds and looks amazing! Over the weekend I had a chance to pick it up and play it. I even composed a little instrumental ditty on it! I tried a few tunings other than the standard C tuning (GGCGCD) that I remembered from the jam sessions I had in Denver during Banjolafest including one where the low G string in dropped down to F and also a G tuning very similar to open G on a guitar. It's a ton of fun!
