    Hey man, just want to say that thanks to you, I bought my first banjo on Saturday! So far, I've snapped and restrung a string (turned the tuning peg too far) and learned to (very slowly) play a G chord followed by a C chord. My fingers hurt, my thumb has a huge blister, but I'm proud to finally call myself a banjo player
