It's just me noodling on the spot but it would work as a break for 'If you should wander back tonight'. Thanks for asking.

Best wishes

Thanks Johnny, quite a clinic on Recording King. I got an RK-85A back in July. So far I've added spikes at 7, 9, and 10, and just yesterday, installed some Schaller D-tuners. I don't think it was ever set up other than what little bit I did myself, now, I feel confident that I can tear it down, and do a proper setup myself. Maybe next string change, I'll do it.

Just a word of advice to the person who makes these videos. When you're posting a video serial, or a numbered series of videos like these are, they ALL should have the EXACT same title, followed by the number in the series. The first in this series is difficult to find because it is not the same as number 2 and those thereafter. The first should be titled, "Banjo build/set-up Part 1 Johnny Butten and Recording King ". and not what you have titled it.

I'm a professional guitarist and have just taken possesion of my first Banjo (an RK-R60A Deco King) and noticed one of the brackets had worked it's way loose in transit. Your video really helped me have the confidence to sort it out - so simple!

Definitely going to do a proper disassembly first chance i get too, thanks again - great vids
