When I build a banjo like this, I keep it for a little while so the neck, head and rim can settle in. I adjust it a bit every day until it’s ready to ship. Sometimes, they are pretty hard to let go, especially this one. Local curly Walnut from The Dee Mill and Pistachio from California Orchards. A wooden tone ring with non steel strings. 11” rim and 25.5” scale length. Check out the shoes, hooks and nuts from Brooks Masten. So sweet.
