Postscript to my last post, ('Banjo' Barney MaKenna)......
Thank you to Amanda 'C' for her email. To answer your question Amanda, Barney plays a 19 fret resonator (closed back) instrument. Personally I prefer a 17 fret resonator (Deering Goodtime Special) instrument. I find it far easier on the odd occasion I play chords. As for the maker and gauge of strings he plays, I have no idea. I have sent him a mail, so will report back when I hear.
I have new contact details here a 'Talkinfolk Towers'. Please make a note, all the best, Philip.
