Just purchased a Washburn B9 5 string banjo and am loving it! New to the banjo scene and wanted to not spend so much just in case. After a few weeks I find and I don't know why that it's easier to learn the the banjo than it was the Guitar. I love the sound of this Banjo and learning new terms like forward and backward rolls! Like Johnny Cash sang! Get Rhythm! Would definitely recommend for a novice like me and Defenitly recommend zZounds! Bought a Taylor from them a while ago and they will be where I shall purchase all of my equipment from in the future!
Musical Background:
Play for my own happiness and if anyone else enjoys it then fantastic! Guitar and now Banjo.
Musical Style:
Blues, Rock, Alternative , now some Bluegrass!
