From Emma Gentry on 9/11/2021 12:35:01 AM

Heya,

I'm very new to banjos by the way. So my grandad has landed me an old banjo that he bought. As I was tuning it one if the strings broke and I realized that the weird tailpiece means that I am unable to attach a new string. Does anyone have a tailpiece that I could buy or any knowledge that could help me with this dilemma.

Thank you so much,

Emma

Emma Gentry says: 9/11/2021 3:23:07 AM Heya guys, thanks for the replies. How do u post a picture?? And I did look at a video on YouTube on how to restring the banjo but by what I gathered the tailpiece would not work that way?

If you have Facebook join my FB page and share pictures and videos easy. It's a much easier and faster platform for us to help each other.
