Quite the week for NGR stuff

[AlanN]

In one week, I've been blessed to:

- jam with a band in Greensboro a few days ago where Ebo Walker was sitting in front of the stage, had a chance to chat with him
- pick at a jam last night where Courtney Johnson's banjo was in tow. It's a 50's pot with a neck he built and did the inlay for (with his wife Hazel). This banjo was used on the 1975 Starday LP.

now, if only Sam had walked in to pick...

That's a good couple of days there, brother!!

Absolutely!

I swear, the back of the neck - banjo, arch top guitar, mandolin, fiddle, whatever - may be the best visual vehicle for curly maple (Shaker chair or table legs are a tie or close second). Dead sexy.
