Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year to all of my customers. Huge thanks for all of the orders this year.

Plenty of cool banjos already booked in for 2021, lots of other stuff planned too... we'll see what happens!!

Check out the latest custom builds, I'm super chuffed with how they both turned out. My first banjo made from Honduras Mahogany and Pau Ferro, I'll definitely be using both woods again!
