[quote author=8Muddypaws]When I played in a group with a banjo we stuffed a towel in the resonator so we could hear the guitars.[/quote]
Some of the banjo ukulele players in our uke band do something similar (they use a towel or foam). I don't, partly because we have a small number of banjo uke players and, on the numbers where we need the BJU sound, we need the sound.
A couple of us were visiting a wonderful luthier in Concord recently, needing to fix a few things with our banjo ukes. One of the "foam" guys was told to remove the stuff(ing) if he wanted to correct the sound problem he was having.
Any unique Portugese instrument you'll bring home with you?
