That sounds like a good excuse to make a Bass Banjo! :palm: :ddb:

After almost a year I finally made the video. In all honesty it was largely those stupid title cards that put me off starting it for so long. I think they're okay on their own but it's totally not the right vibe for a video about a banjo. But for some reason I couldn't just drop them...
Anyways it wasn't so bad when I started actually working on the video. But I still feel like I could've/ should've done a better job for a video i've been sitting on for so long.

First class stuff! I had no intention of watching a 30 minute video on how to build a banjo tonight, but that's exactly what I just did - and I loved every minute of it. I wonder how much other hand-made stuff out there is dead fancy because it's hiding mistakes? ;)
Many thanks for sharing that - warts and all - and that is a lovely instrument you've ended up with. Must be nice to just sit and play it occasionally, knowing you made the whole damn thing, including some of the tools you needed too!

great video and it sounds good. Having watched from the start the video seems quicker :lol: Now just a small video with you playing foggy mountain. Next project a dulcimer maybe or a zither :lol:
:beer:
