This Gourdgeous Oak Gourd Banjo features a 20 1/2 inch scale length, measures 6 1/2 inches across the head , and has a cow hide head. Total length of this instrument is 35 inches. It is currently strung with hard tension nylon strings and is tuned to standard G. Also features two sound holes on the rear side of the gourd, one for the player and one for the listeners. Has hand fit tuning pegs that turn smoothly. This is a very light weight instrument and that would be great for travel. Handcrafted by Robert Browder in the Blueridge Mountains of Virginia. More photos are available upon request.
The gourd of this banjo has a shape that is more round than flat and is about 3 3/4 inches deep. The shell of this gourd is pretty hard, giving the instrument a lovely ringing quality. This banjo is not very loud, but what it lacks in volume is made for in tone! Please let me know if you would like a sound sample.
I aim to have happy customers. If you buy this banjo and find that it is not right for you, just send it back within 30 days for a full refund.
