There seems to be an Eastern Kentucky mountain banjer tradition of octagonal instruments. The Antiques Roadshow features another, elaborated, example. I excerpted some stills to show details which may be of interest to mountain banjer fans. See my folder "Roadshow Octagonal." http://www.banjohangout.org/myhangout/photos.asp?id=18436&albumid=9648
