Mountain Banjo #4

Mountain banjo of flamed maple, birdseye maple, maple, and recycled ebony.

When I built this banjo, it had been several years since I made my last one. For this one, I wanted an all maple instrument with ebony accents. All the ebony in the binding are cut from piano keys salvaged from an old demolished piano. The maple binding pieces are salvaged from scraps left over from other projects. The tailpiece and bridge came from a broken banjo. The neck and body maple are all sustainably and responsibly harvested. This is definately a "green" machine!
