FAQ’s

What banjo models can I customize?
All models can be customized except the Patriot and The Cimarron .

What is the advantage to a laminated neck?
Laminating a neck allows the luthier to orient the grain of the wood to produce an ultra-stable neck. Most necks are not laminated and they do just fine when the grain is straight and dry.

How short is the “short scale neck”?
Our short scale neck is 25-1/2 ”

Will a radius fingerboard make it easier for me to play the banjo?
Maybe. I usually suggest you try one before ordering one. Some folks feel it improves ease of play and others have trouble getting used to them.

How wide are your necks?
Our necks are 1-3/16 ” to 1-1/4″ because this seems to be the “easiest playing” for most folks but we can customize the width if need be.

If I have you build a banjo for me, can I request you use other brands for certain parts such as tailpieces, tone rings, bridges, etc?
No problem.

What type of payment do you accept?
Credit card, check, PayPal or cash.
