The Best Dobro player. He got sooo much feeling. Jerry and Rob can play more advanced. But they dont have the Josh Feel

Josh was a great guy. He and my dad (Bob Cline, or wheelchair Dobro) were great friends and traded dobros a couple times. A few years ago I gave the last two of dads guitars to Brent Burke of Rhonda Vincent and the rage. The sound evokes memories of a childhood full of music.

It was a 1938 model. It is owned by a Japanese collector last I heard. www.chiefnoda.com/pict/pwd45/index.html

At age 14 I got to play Red's guitar. He stayed at our house one night. I believe most of the guitar is a 1938. The back isn't original.

Don Reno was one of the most innovative of Banjo players that ever was. Today new Banjo players are baptized into Don Reno style of playing by their instructors.

The advice Josh gives here about backup is absolutely spot on. Don't take this as boasting, but back in 1965, I had an appointment to visit with Earl Scruggs at his home in Madison. He lived fairly close to Josh. I had a delivery to make to Josh, who invited me to come back to his place after my meeting with Earl. So I did. Josh asked me if I was a picker. I said that I picked some. So he told me to bring my banjo into the house. I did. I got out my banjo, Josh picked up his dobro, and asked what I wanted to play. I said, "Bugle Call Rag," because I knew that he had a really great break on that one. I took a couple of choruses then nodded to Josh to take the lead. I went into backup mode. Josh played about 8 bars, then stopped. I asked him if I'd done something wrong. His answer surprised me. He said, "No. You did something RIGHT!!! I've heard hundreds of guys who could play Bugle Call Rag just like Earl, but you are the first one I've heard who plays backup like Earl." I was absolutely gobsmacked, as they say in the UK. I thanked Josh, then explained -- "I figure that if you are playing in a 4 piece band with a lead singer, you are only going to be playing lead about 20% of the time, so you'd better learn that other 80%!" So I got a good lesson in ensemble playing from the master of the dobro, himself.

@@renoman Would you mind telling me the width of the top (ebony) of your bridge? And is the top ebony side flat or pointed? BTW, your playing is beyond phenomenal! Thanks!
@renoman4 ай бұрын
I am not sure. I sand my bridges a little each time until I get the sound that I want. So it varies depending on the banjo. I just use classic ebony and maple wood. I made a video years ago about Reno style set up. I talk about bridges in it. It may help you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3a5iJ93jpypbKssi=bvSqElLR_bhe25R5
