I just posted three pics of my most recent banjo. It's maple and has a head tensioning system and a good angle in the neck. It has found a home with a BHO member.

	chip arnold says: 5/2/2013 7:07:13 PM The tension is adjusted by way of socket head machine screws turning up or down through T-nuts beneath the tension ring. Looking at the back, the screws are inside the outer ring of holes.
