12" maple pot (3" deep), 24 1/2" short scale walnut neck with maple centre strip, ebony fretboard and peghead overlay, rosewood tonering and ebony rim and heel caps with matching purfling, house sparrow inlay, carbon fibre truss rod, raw brass hardware - all made in house, stained calfskin vellum.
My aim is to make banjos as environmentally as possible so the walnut, rosewood and ebony are all from reclaimed sources. The cast brass bracket shoes were cast a couple of miles from my workshop and from recycled brass.
This banjo wont be for sale but im about to start 2 more which will.
