Great playing! I think I'd want to use some flat wound strings on that thing though...

Awesome tune! Such a well written song and executed masterfully.

What are the best strings for this guitar ?

I bought that banjo George! :D I didn't see this vid until after... Great stuff boys; excellent guitar work Summers!

Remember that this is not considered a parlor guitar. The 00 is a bit larger. But it does look parlor.

Why did you choose a Banjo song for demoing guitars?

The bridge on the first manolin seem to break the rule of lining up with the cutout in the body.

Uh oh! I parked my car in their lot while I ran into Game Stop… better run back out and move it! 😬

That is a Bluegrass beauty!

It's a radius armrest, not beveled. Beautiful guitar. Good video

Too bad I cannot do wide necks or I'd get one...

John repaired a broken fifth string fret and adjusted the set-up on my Goldstar banjo...never sounded better, outstanding. Thank you!

The spruce especially.

Gorgeous axes. Well done.

Do you have to wear overalls to play one? 🤔

Nice presentation! Those 1920s oval hole L-4s have a really nice sound. We carried one like that, also with a Virzi, last year.

What brand are those F styles?

I have a LG-2 from 1942 that Denver Folklore setup for me a couple years ago, and as much as I think nothing could beat that tone, the L-4 you have there sounds like a dream

👍🏻

This is so dope!!!😊

😍😍😍

This is a vibe

Can I order a "speed Neck" (like a Deering Calico) instead of a thick neck?

You forgot the third type - bowl-back or Neapolitan!

"The red haired boy"!

Beauty ! Nice sounding.

Отправьте мне ее в Россию , сколько мне она обойдется ?

78 years old. Thanks! 🙂😎

Sounds great

Gimme that😊

Hey it's Robert from Nashville. Enjoyed meeting you and trying out all the banjos you guys have! When I'm ready to purchase one I'll reach out! This was one of my favorites

This one I could listen to all day and night. Such a relaxing tone

Sounds beautiful

very cool!

Thanks. I have seen those Loars advertised as being all hand carved wood, Spruce and maple....

Do you guys have any left handed banjos?

Nice job on the Sir Duke lick!

That is very fascinating learning that the role of the banjo in bluegrass music is like the bass, as it is supposed to “cut through” the other instruments. Could you tell me more about the role of various instruments in bluegrass? For example, what is the role of the mandolin - since the mandolin also seems to “cut through” other instruments, as well, with the “chop chords”. Does it play the melody? Does it compete with - or does it support the fiddle? Also, what about the guitar in bluegrass? Is that an “archtop guitar” - and what is its role? Thank you.

What do you think about the mandolin-banjo (banjolin)? Does it sound closer to a banjo or mandolin? I am intrigued by that instrument!

A is American

Thats a beautiful instrument :)

great video. i love the banjo, been playing clawhammer about a year. hard to find face to face/zoom lessons, doing my best to learn from online. also hard to find variety of banjos in stores to try out before you buy. i now have 8 banjos of different rim sizes and tone rings lol it can be addicting.

Great video! Which tone wood would you recommend for someone who’s been playing electric for 15 years and is finally looking to get their first full sized dread acoustic?

Nice informative I have a derring black diamond with a frosted head had about 10 yrs now it was in the case for almost 2 yrs during moving around pulled it out couple weeks ago and still in tune minus a 1/2 tone or so on the top G they make very very nice instruments.

I have a KM270 and I rate it ABOVE my 1921 Gibson A2 and only slightly below my 1923 Gibson A jr Snakehead which is truly a powerful instrument.

Such an interesting guitar!

Mandolin player semi-professionally for some 40 years. One of the biggest issues I have with mandolins I encounter, either through students or simply looking over at shops, is that the nut is all too commonly too "short" (1.125-ish); it's almost as if the maker took his/her cue from a violin. The average hand size of an adult mandoline player cannot perform on so small an area, and for that matter, it really isn't necessary to have the strings flare out so from the nut towards to bridge. When I recommend students and intermediate players to buy one mando or another, I encourage them to seek an instrument with a nut around 1.375 or so. Some "good" mandolines suffer from the "small nut" while some "decent" models at least give the player room for their fingers.

A comes from Almond form, I guess

Jose Oribe makes a great guitar
