Been slow to get this playing. The nylgut strings have stretched out nicely, and are holding tune. Realized I needed a new bridge, as the one that came with her was for metal strings. I found Bart at Banjobridge.com, and after going through his highly specific order process, I should have my new bridge within a week or so.

Thanks, I may move up to gut before long. This seemed a good place to start. Mostly playing indoors for now. But I do like consistency! Enjoy the new banjo!
