Thanks for the advice, the diversity of styles and approaches in the banjo world is a bit intimidating but I don't suspect getting a feel for the instrument will be all that difficult. I've been playing guitar for ~10 years so I'm hoping a lot of that experience will transfer over smoothly. I'm not concerned about having to teach my fretting hand any new tricks, I'm anticipating that most of the learning curve will involve my picking hand. You're certainly right about passively practicing open G rolls, helps a lot, as did passive picking practice with guitar back in the day.
