Minstrel Banjo

For enthusiasts of early banjo

  I just bought a banjo on ebay...Eric Prust flush fret with stars too. in lovely condition......I had hoped to learn to play it because I played 5 string banjo Scruggs style about 20 years ago....Now I am having second thoughts when I tried to play and ...sound is very different then...Where do I learn to play this type of banjo...what books do I get...what tuning....No one teaches clawhammer around me.  So now...should I just try to sell it.  oy........ HELP
