    As a left-handed player who does the same thing on righty necks...I approve, Jim.

    Love it! Thanks for sharing that, Jim. I'm a lefty that plays a right-handed banjo. It's just easier than finding quality left handed instruments. I've never thought about crossing my arms though.
    I hope that you and your family are doing well.

    I've known for some time that you're a great banjo player, but that just ain't right for somebody to have that much talent. I mean, shoot, spread it around some!

    I used to pick with a guy out of Jackson County that'd just turn a right handed 5 over and play it upside down, thumb string on the bottom. Google 'Sweet Tater Band' and look where the thumb string is. Too bad he's gone to his reward.
