Thankyou Joel and Mandy!, You just play a long neck the same as an ordinary banjo, but the strings are tuned to E instead of G, which is good for singing some songs that I can’t do in G. (the fretless banjos are tuned to E as well). The long neck can make your arm ache after a while though!
In reply to - Bill Holden posted an update in the group Banjo Bandits Here’s a long neck banjo from the uk, .. need a bit more practise on the tune, this is the best I can get it at the moment. · View -

Ditto to this! I wouldn’t begin to know what to do with a long neck, but you made it sound great Bill. Is it hard to reach the end???? LOL

Hiya Joel, thanks, ..don’t think I did any double thumbing there, .. I just concentrated on the singing and let the hands do their own thing!
