Great episode love these!
I know what Kirsten is saying about not playing her pre war.
I used to live down the road from a deering dealer so over a while I got to play them all and no doubt beautiful banjos but none would ever replace my mastertone and to be honest most of it is probably in the head but hey ho.
Thanks Deering🇬🇧👍

Thanks! Good points about the instrument ageing and sound evolution.

I didn't hear anything about head tension, unless I missed it. Where does Kristin run her heads at?

Wow ..on the road again..❤ can I get the 45 pages of tablature on that? Lol

Al Osteen student all day long...That's why she's gravitated towards Earl's sound.
