I finally made the discovery that he was playing a very unusual instrument
.
. . a 6 string banjo called a BANJITAR (some folks spell it banjuitar). This
is a hybrid instrument between and Banjo and a Guitar. The build of a banjo
with a slightly wider neck and the 6 strings of a guitar.
(snip)
That instrument sounds like what Clancy Hayes used to play. Check out Bob
Scobey's recordings.
