I build a variety of open-back 5-String banjos and the occasional gourd banjo. I took out this ad to share my work more directly with the BHO community. Check out the Thumpy Banjos website for more info, browse currently available banjos, and see demo videos.

Thumpy Banjos - They've Got That Round Sound.
The banjo shown in this ad is already gone. The price here is just a ballpark figure. Happy to build others like it by request. A little more about it...

- Weight – 1 pound, 12.8 ounces
- Walnut neck and stick
- Neck is carbon fiber reinforced (non-adjustable)
- Indian Laurel fingerboard with flush frets and side-dot markers
- 22.25 inch variable scale length – the player can slide the bridge around – 22.25 inch is considered the middle of the playable range

- 11 inch multi-ply maple rim stained dark
- Pre-stretched calf-hide head – sealed with shellac for added stability and resistance to humidity
