Minstrel Banjo

For enthusiasts of early banjo

This a little clip of my banjo, finally repaired and strung with nylon, this is about all I can remember how to play, but I'm working on some stuff.

That banjo sounds good with nylon strings.  Did you use the Nylgut Classics, or the heavier Minstrel set?

I used the classics, I'm tuned down a  step of so, but all in all is plays much better and sounds much better than it ever did with steel. It's like having a new instrument.

Sounds great Wes! I am also finding it hard to go back to steel strings.

Nice!  Sounds a lot like my 1888 Stuart that I strung with nylon strings.
