Hey, Johnny,

It's the Swiss army knife of bluegrass instruments.

That thing's awesome. Two caveats: First, it's an electric instrument, which is verboten in bluegrass, but the Osborne Brothers used electrics and drums, and I LOVE them. Second, as far as I know, Sav Sankaran's the only local guy who could play all the necks... many of us know one, two, or even three of the instruments, but Sav does it all (and sings!). Go see Sav's band, Sweetwater. They're different than Mama Corn... they're more about pretty, we're more about chugga-chugga-chug.---->JMS

I like it when Songsmith plays ahem....."Mouth Organ" Nobody wraps their lips around a long hard instrument like J-Roy.
