Mill Creek5 String Resonator Back Banjo

This is a new 5 String Resonator Back Banjo with the following attributes:

An 11” 3 ply maple shell with a Remo frosted head, a Waverly tailpiece, a flat head tone ring, a 24 notched tension hoop with L shoe brackets and banjo bracket hooks.

The neck is a Curly Maple with a two way adjustable truss rod, ebony fingerboard with a 26 3/16” scale, side position markers and MOP diamond shaped inlays.  There are two Brass coordinator rods for neck attachment to the shell.  The Headstock has my own design along with my Logo and an Ebony overlay and an Ebony heel cap. The tuning machines are Planetary tuning machines.

The Flame Maple resonator has one concentric circle on the back and the entire instrument has 12 coats of Lacquer hand Rubbed to a high gloss finish. I stand behind every instrument I build with a lifetime guarantee on materials and craftsmanship. This instrument was proudly built by me in my shop in Bunker Hill, West Virginia.
