Thumpy Banjo Builds
Thumpy Banjos are available in variety of configurations including nylon-strung fretless gourd banjos to contemporary steel-strung instruments and a lot of things in between. Take a look at the Build Log to see what I’ve done and what may be possible for the build you have in mind.
Pictured below are two of the banjos I currently build the most commonly. Both are fretless, However, I do have a bunch of fretted banjos in the works.
The Ultra-light model is a lot like the one shown below. They are made to be light.
Both models are hand-crafted, so variations on the basic theme is the norm. Other variations, such as short-scale steel-strung fretted banjos and flush-fret banjos can be found among recent builds.
