Default Banjo Experiments

Homemade hybrid banjo demos. I am pleased with the sound but am not a banjo player. I plan to make another and welcome comments and critiques.

P.S. My favorite local dealer, Stutzman's Guitar Center, here in Rochester, New York, has had for a year something called an Antelope Banjo Electric Single 1 in stock. I haven't played it but your banjos are so much nicer looking. I'd contact the owner, Dave Stutzman, about selling your banjos through his store. Stutzman's Guitar Center

Thank you Sprucetop for the kind words. The nice playing is by my Nephew. My instrument shop is currently a side gig which I am unable to dedicate much time to. I am not sure if the hybrid banjo will become a production model or not. Thanks & best regards, Maurice

The shop is barely functioning part time so I have nothing for sale at this time.
I am enjoying this tune composed and played by my Nephew.
