Testimonial

"Imagine hearing your baby's voice before birth! Wouldn't that be the most beautiful sound in the world? I'd have to say the joy I experienced in first hearing Chuck's banjo was second only to that scenario. Don Zepp (www.zeppmusic.com) had recorded a magical MP3 of Snowdrop on Chuck's Tubaphone Granbury #019. The moment I heard the magnificence of that b-e-a-u-tiful voice, I knew she was mine. I had to have that baby! 48 hours later, she was on her way... special delivery! I couldn't be happier with the way she plays. And not only does she sound great, she's a looker to boot! So, when the time comes, my grandbabies will now have something to live up to. Might even carry a picture of them around with me... like I do my Granbury. Granbury, grandbaby. I can see where pride might confuse which picture I show first.

Thanks Chuck. Love that banjo!!"

Note from Chuck Lee:

Visit "Singleton Street", Craig Evans' band. Listen to the sound files from their new CD. Craig plays this banjo on several tracks. One in particular is "Pretty Little Miss/Shady Grove"... a song that just happens to feature the Granbury #019! I recommend getting a CD for yourself.
