To "produce" a sound similar to Banjo
I use a cloth (scarf or light towel) and
place it across the 12th fret.
Everything that's been "picked" above sounds
banjo-like.
A good friend of mine, Steve Smith, who played once in my band showed me this little
trick.

| I think if -b0b- had his way, it would be thick naugehyde (sp?) and duck tape at the 12th fret! |

Here are three typical banjo rolls as played
on the banjo. How you adapt these to the
steel is up to your own discretion.

Another one I like to play from time to time, is sort of a banjo type back up type lick.
Semi-mute the strings and go one fret higher than the pedals down position with the E to Eb lever engaged. In a fast roll, (to match the song tempo), play strings 4, 3, 2. I use it primarily to back a bluegrassy type fiddle solo in tunes like Rocky Top.
