Ring that holds the head in place.

Monday, August 8, 2016

I am a guitar player, so I know very little about a banjo, who just got a banjo that was not in very good shape.  While I do not think it is a very expensive banjo, I am replacing the head and ran into the following problem.  I first measured the rim of the banjo and it measures 11".  The ring that holds the head in place has an inside diameter of 11 1/4 inches so it wants to slide over the rim of the new head.  It appears that the old head had a wider head rim so it worked. It appears that I need a different head that has a wider rim or I need a smaller ring that holds the head down.  Any suggestions?
