Bill just built me a 5-string neck for the 1935 TB 1 I got from Jim Mills last year when he played near here (Albany, NY). I picked it up last week at the Joe Val festival in Massachusetts. The neck from Bill is great. It has the shape and contours I wanted, a beautifully done sunburst finish on the back showing the flame maple and a fine Brazilian rosewood fingerboard with perfectly cut inlays. He also put in a Dannick tone ring and the banjo has a great sound- full, loud when necessary and with a lot of crack. His work is excellent, and I would recommend him without reservation. Plus, he's a really nice guy.
