This deer hunting theme banjo is my personal player. It documents my hunting season in 2019. Constructed of walnut and padauk, with a black locust tonering and a goat skin head, it has that woody sound I like. Some of the unique features of this instrument are deer horn nut and 5th string pip, custom designed and cast neck brace, and deer tracks and skull inlay. It's a real beauty and a great playing jam instrument.
