So I put the new steel strings on the banjammer and it sounds GREAT! I did have to adjust the bridge a bit but it was easy.
I wouldn't have had the confidence to tackle this without the feedback here….Thanks again!
Thank you Greg…. I appreciate having this info!
Thanks Dusty! I’m taking no chances sending it to you.. LOL!! I’m going to try restringing tomorrow…. I’m hoping the bridge will become self evident. Thanks for your quick response! Linda
A friend has given me her banjammer… (can you believe it?!). It has nylon strings… they sounded pretty cool but seem kinda floppy to play. When I tried to tune up a step, the high string broke. Of course. I called a friend who has a banjammer and his has steel strings. 10-14-24. I can find nothing online about strings! Looked at Mike Clemmers site and left a voice mail at that number. I’d prefer to change to steel strings.
Question: Should it work to just put steel strings on it? It looks like it has a floating bridge which I have no idea how to adjust. Any input appreciated…
Here is link to 2 articles I found from 1974 Charleston, WV paper ….
Very interesting man!
This function doesn't work for me; I enter a new password twice but get the following error msg:
You have entered an invalid value for "my interests in music or mountain dulcimer: " - value must be printable characters with the following allowed HTML tags: span,strong,em,a,b,u,i,p,div,br,img,h2,h3,h4,pre,hr,ul,ol,li
I am using Safari 7.1 if that helps. I even tried putting text in the "my interests" box but that didn't work either.
Any ideas? I'd like to change password to one I will remember! Thanks, Linda
