    Any Banjo players in the house?

    I'm fixin' to pick up a banjo and get to playin' some Bluegrass.

    Anyone around here ever play the banjo? Harder than Guitar?

      What's the standard tuning on a banjo?
      SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

        banjo tuning isn't as simple as guitar tuning, as there are different opinions as standard tunings..

        i tune mine to what's called double c tuning

                That sounds scary! Any tutorials online or is it best to find a cousin named Zeke and learn from him?
