hi manna. i play the typical 5 string. i have two of them. one is a cheap johnson and the other is a decent fender banjo. you?
my favorite tuning is gCGCE. i hardly play in open g on it anymore. if i remember right you mentioned that you play clawhammer. my friend colin does too! i don't really play the scruggs style...but like a more primitive version of it. i play in syncopated bass rhythms that feel john fahey'esque to me. i am self taught on the banjo. but i've been into alternate tunings for a while on the guitar (especially open ones), so the banjo was a fun transition for me.
