I've always liked the POP sound that some banjo players get from their 5th string. Yesterday I was giving a basic banjo lesson to a guy whose banjo just didn't have any Life in it.. Soooooooo, I put a one inch piece of cellophane tape, folded, on the 5th string just in front of the bridge, and WALAA ! That Old Time POP was sounding great on his banjo. Have any of you tried that? It is terribly simple to remove if you don't like it but it is ceratinly worth the effort to experiment.. LEE
