This one looks simple at first, but the closer you look, the more you will find. The best example is the sliver of sapwood on the Texas Ebony fretboard, headplate and heel cap. I also find more to listen for as I play it, with little details hiding in the depth of its sound. It has a 12” rim, brass tone ring, synthetic head and non steel strings. The cherry is from the Carpenter Ant stash in Portland and the Texas Ebony is from a retired banjo builder.
