    When I was a teen someone gave me three of your fingerpicking tapes featuring mostly folk and country melodies. This piqued my interest in fingerstyle which developed to my later teens when I began RCM classical guitar lessons. One of the most complicated instruments when you have some Bach sheet music in front of you. Thank you for fanning that flame in my childhood, though struggling with a classical performers piece sometimes that might elicit a frustrated glare. Hard to admit it but that was thirty years ago.

    Maybe you should look at the banjeurines that were made at the end of the 1880s through around 1910. These were five string banjos with a larger rim and shorter neck. S. S. Stewart made many of them and you can find them on the internet. At that time “classic” playing that included waltzes, marches and ragtime was all done on five string instruments with gut strings and a typical ensemble included the regular banjo, piccolo banjo, banjeurine and even bass banjo alone with guitars and mandolins. The early evolution of the tenor banjo comes from removing the fifth peg from a banjeurine and tuning in fifths so that violin and cello players could easily adapt to play for dance bands. I don’t think you’ve heard much tenor banjo playing if you think it’s limited and not as energetic as five string playing. Google tenor banjo playing. 😄
