I've found it beneficial to have the banjo in tune.
-
I agree. I was about to say the exact same thing when I saw this. The head on my banjo is really loose and I love how it sounds. I would much rather here that BIG FAT sound than a shrill or tinty sound like a tight head produces.
-
@bullystick I agree, this is about the perfect sound for an archtop!
-
I won't show this to my brother who sold a pre-civil war gibson on e-bay for "a song", as they say. He now regrets it. Your banjo and your pickin' sound great!
-
Man that thing is sweet!
-
I am sure it was a joke.
-
Sounding beautiful man.How much did you buy it for? If you don't mind me asking ofcourse.

Some things just get better with age... That ol' Gibson is a true survivor! Thanks for sharing... Love those tunes ;)

tighten that head up and move closer to the bridge its not a guitar

Some folks may enjoy the shrill bite of a tight head on an old arch top played close to the bridge (Ralph Stanley sure could crack windows with his) and that's fine with me. However, I prefer the tubby sound this banjo produces with a slightly looser head. Thanks for your comment.

Yeah..time to upgrade and get rid of that old thing! ( I'll take it ! )
Seriously though...your pulling a nice tone out of that archtop!

I appreciate your generosity to relieve me of the old banjo but I've grown very fond of its tone and response. Thanks for your comments.
