*Squeees* I've ordered my banjo, the Goldtone AC-12. Got it from Guitar Center online. I'm super excited to get this. Went for this one for the sound and it will be a good light weight banjo that is a decent one to last a while. I also wanted a good starter that won't sound like a crappy toy. This seems to be the one, along with the GoldTone AC-1, that people recommend.

@blindbat84 I've never played the banjo but it's probably fun.

@kev That's what I hope, it sounds fun and sounds like it will be a fun journey.

@blindbat84 Yay! How awesome! Did you find tutorials to learn or do you already have an idea of how to play?

@blindbat84 LOL for whatever it might be worth, I sort of internally call banjos Willmans. This is because of a dentist I last visited on November 8, 1994, named Dr. Willman. Apparently he played the banjo, though I never heard him. @BorrisInABox also knows about this.
