Well .... Its done and it sounds GREAT ! For a first shot at building a banjo from scratch, Im completely happy with the choice it came out ... It took considerable patience on WIlls part to get the neck on right, and we learned a lot, about building a banjo and about working together on a project where we both had a little knowledge, but neither of us had the whole picture. We both stuck up for what we thought was right, which made the process decidedly more interesting. Its a good thing one of us (and it wasnt me) knew a lot about how a banjo should play, how it should be set up and what little things you can do to fine tune the finished product. Will has a couple more tweaks that he wants to do to it, but I think hes pretty happy with it too .... Hopefully, well add some sound to this entry soon .... Click the pictures to enlarge them .....
