Well, personally, I would be a bit hesitant about bringing my 100+K
anything to a festival, but well, if it were a
banjo ... Nope, got nothing there.
I know, some are wondering how could a banjo be worth that much. I thought something like that myself the day I dropped by my luthier's and he had Charlie Daniels' 50K banjo on the bench. I asked him in all innocence how could a banjo be worth that much, and he just said, "Play it." Well, I'm here to tell you, that sucker rang like a church bell. Just a beautiful sounding instrument. Yes, I said it - beautiful. (Ivan is loving this, probably printing and framing it.
)
The thing is, you go to festivals where people really know the most about the music and instruments we all love, and you want to bring your best. It's almost not even a question of whether you will bring your pride and joy, but a matter of how to do it and care for it. Beaters are for camping, not festivals.
