You all are sounding so good here. The guitar is especially wonderful. Similarly the double barreled vocal.

Forget my banjo part. I just can’t get the timing and feel right. I took off what I recorded. Byrdlander do it with a real banjo, by all means. ThAt would be so much better. I just love the feel we have on this song. As to that part, I go with the doctors’ rule-first do no harm!

I do have a real banjo. Interesting about James Taylor doing the part.

@teslarian: Is BanjoChris around, he's the guy, but let me look into this James Taylor guitar tuned banjo story and see if I can even get in the zone

@teslarian: Okay, research says it was a git-banjo, a 6 string tuned like a guitar. Lucky us, I have a Line6 Variax that can do banjo tone. It sounds pretty realistic.

@Byrdlander : does that mean you don't have to use a git banjo and can just use your guitar instead?

@teslarian: Yes, it has a piezo pickup and does a fairly convincing banjo, as sell as resonators, 12 stings and even a Coral sitar.
