Gary Sosebee custom made this black stand for me. The same stand can be bought in a natural finish at banjo.com. As usual, Gary's craftsmanship is fabulous. This stand is an original design by Gary. It is the safest stand you will ever see for a banjo. This thing can NOT be knocked over!

Depends on who is playing her! LOL! She sounds pretty danged awesome when someone with talent is doing the picking. When I am the picker, well then she has to settle for just looking good! She's just a standard RK-R80, but I had a frosted black head put on her, colored the bridge in black with a sharpie, and put the Black Diamond black coated strings on her. The heads aren't easy to come by, but my buddies at Banjo.com made it happen. There is a black flange in the works too, but it hasn't been finished yet.
