Salad Bowl "gourdless" Gourd Banjo #2 - Deep Creek Strings

[theuc]

Wow that's a really awesome banjo. But I've got a feeling that you're playing a bit out of tune, but yet I understand how hard it is to play a fretless banjo.

Oh sure, you have a great salad bowl supplier. JK, that was a nice video, worthwhile watching. Especially like your use of bloodwood, not easy to handle but it looks like you nailed it. Thanks for posting! I just posted a short clip of my gourd banjo if you want to see it.

That's gorgeous construction! Hopefully it'd never happen, but could you conceivable change the skin without doing too much damage to the bowl (moving tacks &c.)?

[ozzyscruggs1]

How well does she hold skin tension?

[judeseamus]

now that you've mastered making one...learn how to play it

[jdelfield]

Your right. A year and a half ago I was a beginner. If you're going to comment on my playing, though, you might want to view a more current video...much improved.

[physkoz]

that is awesome.

[ThatsABiggon]

I want one!

[ekserchina]

sounds awsome and it looks great...the only flaw I could see is the thin headstock...there is really no meat there...I'm assuming it's sturdy as it is but will it really stay that way?

[NuG919]

yeah..sounds good to me, and it is georgeous!nicely done

[pappyfiddle]

Sounds good from here... I've got a hubcap I'm going to have to try making into a viola

[williestratton]

absolutely beautiful.

hi jeff,

[gsjssss]

[21centuryShaman]

Great banjo!!! After I make my gourd banjo, I might give the bowl a try. Thanks for the inspiration...

[rpeek]

Sounds pretty good for a bowl... Like it!

[jdelfield]

Thanks. That gas can sounds pretty good too.

Jeff

[kathoffwoman]

[banjoden]
