That's some banjo playing, Lew! Wish I could play like that. Out of curiosity, how much does a long necked banjo cost?

Oh, by the way, sounds like Darlin' Corey and Little Maggie might have been sisters!

Good observation...

I am not sure how much they cost and I think they are difficult to come by. Pete Seeger designed it to fit his vocal range and they became quite popular in the 50s and 60s. Now I don't know if anyone is making them.
