Antique "British Made" Banjo (good cheap banjo)
Added 2020-04-15 18:21:49 +0000 UTCThis lower-end English banjo, probably made in the 1890s, exhibits an interesting mix of Old and New World style craftsmanship. It's also surprisingly bright, loud and punchy-sounding! The spun-over bent ash rim probably contributes a lot to its sound. Restored by me with contemporary rosewood tuners, antique maple bridge and La Bella No. 17 nylon strings for "classic banjo."

Sorry, Brian! Fear not, there's more fish in the sea. I have a good cheap L&H almost ready that you might like.

2020-04-21 16:45:42 +0000 UTCIntro music is "On the Road Somewhere" learned from George Gibson. When I asked George about this song he casually mentioned, "It was recorded under another title by them boys from Virginia." He was referring to Carter and Ralph Stanley's traditional bluegrass hit, "I've Got a Mule to Ride."
