Spillway Dam Banjo Bridges, and other types too

Wednesday, February 27, 2013

Hi all,

I have been building a Banjo Bridge called the Spillway Dam, and Big Foot Banjo Bridge, and selling them here on the banjohangout in the "Classified" section, for a few years now.  The Bridge was designed by members here on the hangout, rollplayer, and xnavyguy, and they gratefully gave me permission to build, and sell them, for which I am very thankful

I build them out of several types of wood, in several different different styles, and the selection keeps expanding.  I Custom build the bridges to the specifications the customer wants as far as Height, String Spacing, and number of strings, as well as cutting the string slots for steel, or Nylon strings.

Please check out my listings in the Classified Section, and if you need more information, you can email me at  dnew45@att.net

Thanks,

Don

Retired Farmer, took up the Banjo late in life, after retirement, but something I always wanted to do. Been pickin' about 5 years now, and although not very good, have loved the journey. I love working on them, probably the reason I'm not very good at pickin' lol, and I guess like most players, am always looking for "The Sound".
