"Prewar Day" at the Jim Mills Banjo Showroom.

So..... I finally did it. I was fortunate to play two otherworldly pieces of Gibson Banjo history. Just watch this video to see which two I get my hands on!
All the best and keep rollin,

I have just recently discovered a love of banjo. I am taking lessons because my 8 year old son ask me to learn so I can teach him. I have been a mandolin player for 25 years or so and love all things mandolin. Figured I have room for a banjo too! I watch your clips often and long to make the sound you are producing. Baby steps, baby steps!! Thanks

The mac crow is my favorite banjo in the entire galaxy !

[@bryanhaywood1]

That was great! The Snuffy Jenkins banjo was dynamite and very responsive. The Mack Crow had a depth to it that is so rare. I'm excited to go visit Jim next weekend and get to see and play these awesome banjos too! I absolutely love these prewar videos. Thanks for sharing and I hope that you can add some more.

That rb75 sounded huge!!!

[@JPM-NM]

1:29 to 1:37 you play the kickoff to Pig In A Pen. That look up and laugh says "Yep I just played Jim Mills' kickoff for Jim Mills"

[@SG-jp1jp]

Thanks James, I'll start practicing right away! Greetings from the Netherlands

Hank Williams would approve of that first number, always sounds good bluegrass style and you did it justice. Thank you.

[@Mason_bluegrass]

[@jeremeyslayton9862]

Love it

[@michaelangelo9024]

Hey Mr. Mills may I please have one banjo of yours ? I know you only have 6 fingers on each hand so you shouldn't have all of those beautys!

[@7947872]

Me too.

[@Isaaceells]

I didn’t realize at first but there’s 2 different gold Mac Crowes being played in the video. I’m guessing maybe one of them is the Huber look alike? Or maybe another Gibson

[@PreWar1934]

So jealous!

[@user-ui8zp2vw6m]

What awesome banjos, was that last one yours?

[@81crowe]

+Henri Frelin Yes! I had the only non Gibson in that room. It's my Gold Star Crowe model that I play with Ricky.

[@user-ui8zp2vw6m]

81crowe It's nice to see other names in the mix, very cool GoldStar. I've been playing since August, feel free to check out what i've put together lately, I'd love some advice from a better player! soundcloud.com/henrifrelin

[@SG-jp1jp]

Can anyone tell me what Russ is playing on the RB75?

[@conner8770]

Pig in A Pen

[@adamaj74]

Tune those things!

[@PreWar1934]

adamaj you obviously ain’t a Banjo player. Banjos can’t be tuned. 🙃

[@merlynschutterle7242]

Too metallic for my ear.

[@unholylemonpledge9730]

Cool no one asked
