"I've just acquired a very fine Zither Banjo - Barnes & Mullins London circa 1900."
"LOL, I was thinking along the lines of Banjeaurine, Banjo, 2nd Banjo and Cello Banjo. It doesn't quite get up high enough for a Piccolo part.
Reading the bass clef again has been interesting. I learned it when I was playing Cello (not the CB…"
"Dude, It would be no problem to find two more players for your first rally! We would make quite a splash with a 4 banjo arrangement."
"Hi Trapdoor2,
I can't thank you enough for taking the trouble to give me access to the tabs. Ian's video was what inspired me to want to play this tune and now, thanks to you, I'll be busy for a while. I'll let you…"
"See? I told you waltzes were easy...
The mp3 is considerably faster than 'standard', it just sounds better to me there (150bpm).

"Hi Steve, thanks for your comment. Firstly, regarding the tabs. I would know the tune first before I decided to try playing it so there is no problem there. Secondly, I do agree with you that it is good to put in the effort to…"

"Let me elaborate.

I by no means consider myself a great player and I pretty much crumble with stage fright for…"
"Thanks Marc,
I tried to create a TAB from my original notation score created in Encore and for some reason it would not let me!!! Anyway automatically created TABs for banjo are usually wrong as hasn't a clue which position the notes are in and…"

Zither Banjo
I've just acquired this very fine Barnes & Mullins Zither Banjo circa 1900. I stripped it down, cleaned and polished it and put a set of Clifford Essex Zither Banjo Strings on. I made a new bridge out of some 50 year old maple which I've had for years and it now sounds great.
