Back in the 80's I did some trading with Frank Neat and obtained a walnut tenor Florentine Heel with all the carvings. Sometime in the next few years I loaned it to someone who was wanting to carve one....... I've forgotten who I loaned it too...... And I have asked everyone who I could think of that I might have loaned it too........... If I loaned you that walnut Florentine heel...... please contact me as I'd like to do one.


Thanks So much...



Doug

Doug- I’m off topic here but I just want to thank you for the work you have done to preserve banjo history and to share what you have learned from working with the legends.

It was an honor to meet you at the Bill Monroe Centennial celebration. I appreciate all your contributions and insights.
