Walnut and cherry construction with a unique wood tone ring of cherry. I wanted a light weight and fancy banjo, so I minimized the use of metal parts. The tension hooks seat in a flange turned into the rim and the pot and neck are held together with an ebony wedge. The shellac finish has a matte appearance and is silky to the touch. The pearl inlays have a hunting theme with an arrow, boar's head and prints, a star, and a deer antler. Also included is a handmade leather and suede strap. It is a very beautiful and fine sounding instrument! You can hear Judy and Dean Robinson play Five Miles Miles from Town and Citico on Youtube.
