Hohner "Old Standby No 34b"....key of C, yunnastan.
I had to break off a couple fins to play the blues...
what else is new?
I used to be good....REAL good...then I put it down.
But I'm back.
Came with a hip little case too...like yer pulling out a shank.
...and like the box says:
"This is a musical instrument....NOT a toy"
Can I get a witness.
Um hmm.
<toot-toot>

Damn, you've given up on the bass and the guitar and fallen to this? I had such hopes for you, sonny.

No, Bleers....I shant indulge the BANjo!...the mere connoctation
induces visions of "colored" lunch counters and rustic backwoods

Why not the saddest of all keys, D minor?

Prepared bassoon? You ain't got the thumbs for regular bassoon, let alone any preparation.

Key of C major is D minor. Maybe not the minor you seek, but D minor nonetheless. He's got two thirds of Impressions covered.
