Specifically thinking of the Soon be Time album.

I've seen him play a 1978 Kyle Creed apple wood banjo with the original skin head (below right)

He has another one made for him by Kevin Enoch with a fiberskyn head that was reconditioned with a goatskin head.  (below left)



I understand he also has an original Dobson fretless.
