So I am new here. I purchased my first banjo in December last year and went with an open back Oscar Schmidt OB-3. I love my banjo. I love it even more since pulling the frets out and converting it to a flush fret banjo. 

Anyways. Im looking at getting a second banjo. I have read plenty of topics on here about using a resonator banjo for clawhammer style, and actually the musician who got me interested in Banjo playing, uses a resonator and plays a mean clawhammer style. Willie Watson.

This leads me to the point of this topic, I have seen a few names dropped on artists who use resonators and play clawhammer.

Basically Im looking for more inspiration from players on resonator banjos playing clawhammer.

Any recommendations?

I actually have my eyes set on a Recording King R-20 locally here for $300 OBO. So I intend on purchasing it in the next week or so.

Thanks everyone in advance for your recommendations as well as thanks to BHO for the ridiculous amount of information it provides to people like me just starting out.
