A few photos of the current batch of banjos being built.
Top left and right are Thomas and Malcolm's tackheads, one in Maple and one in Ash, should be complete in a few weeks. Stephen's Walnut 12" 'Whyte Laydie', due to be completed around May.
2nd row, left and right are some stock fretless banjos I'm putting together for a workshop I've been asked to do in July. These will be available to purchase later in July, 12" pots (mix of Walnut and Maple), Ash and Maple necks.
3rd row, left is Fabian's Minstrel, 2 Oak slats bent and ready for gluing, Maple neck with Rosewood fingerboard.
Right will be a stock banjo, I don't currently have any banjos in stock so thought I'd try and squeeze some in! 12" 2-ply Maple rim, not sure which tone ring I'll use, 26" scale flamed Maple neck. If you would like to put your name on this one let me know soon, still lots that can be customised :)
Bottom left is the beginnings of John's 4-string Tenor open back banjo, 12" Maple rim, short scale Walnut neck. My banjo playing started 20+ years ago on a 4 string Tenor, I'm looking forward to finishing this one and trying to remember some of the Irish tunes I used to play!
Bottom right will be another stock banjo, I was hoping to have finished this little Walnut mountain banjo last year but time didn't permit.
