Please give "Ichabod" a new home. This is the latest Barry Sholder Woodspirit Gourd 5 string Fretless Banjo. The banjo features a Cherry wood neck with a hand carved and colored Woodspirit peghead. The fingerboard is fretless Bloodwood with a lemon oil finish. The banjo includes Ebony friction violin tuners and a custom set of D'Addario nylon and composite classical guitar strings These strings are the hot setup that have a harder feel than the Nylgut.
The gourd measures a big 10 1/2"dia.x 6"deep with a 2 1/2" soundport on the upper side of the gourd. Great tone! As with all my banjos the interior is fiberglassed for durability and to improve acoustics. The tailpiece is a Romero style, that keep the strings from touching the edge of the gourd. The banjo is numbered and signed.
I have gigbags and extra sets of strings available on my website: www.gourdbanjosbybarry.com
