#815- Maple and White Oak Scout Mini Banjo

This banjo follows my “Scout” line of ukuleles, meaning I get to pick the wood, it uses my thin steam bent rims, less metal hardware and a super thin beeswax and oil finish. This makes for a lightweight, vibrant, rustic and lower cost banjo. The Maple from this is leftover from a Colorado cabinet maker which I’ve saved for many years. The Oak is from two places: wine barrels from up the road and a tree from our friend Larry’s property. #815 is headed to Europe for a bicycle trip! Bon voyage!

I just wanted to express my deepest appreciation for getting me little beansprout to me! I cannot even tell you how much I love it!!!! I adore and treasure this beauty and I can’t stop playing it.
I am so happy happy happy!
