My compliments, John. Glad to see the neck where it belongs....on a banjo!! How does she sound?

Anthony...it sounds great, and I agree. With all these "abandoned" vintage plectrum and tenor necks lying around, they have a great future in being joined up with quality, newer pots. I don't know about you, but I'm seeing renewed interest in 4 string banjo, as many 5 stringers are waking up to the fact that they can make a relatively easy transition to plectrum style. It was a fun project.

john i recently played a paramount banjo and you are right i am interested also how ironic a 5 string converted to a plectrum bet this is a first

Can't comment in that regard. Philly is pretty much an exclusive 4 string haven. But it's good to hear that it's gaining interest elsewhere!! Four strings for four fingers I always say!! Enjoy your new Masterclone!!
