Minstrel Banjo

For enthusiasts of early banjo

I'll keep this short so we can discuss music, not money.

 

I have 2 Whopper 12" Minstrel Tambourines left. They have 4 sets of LOUD big brass jingles with 'star' design tacks.  They have a SERIOUS sound you could lead a parade with.

 

2 brown (stained maple and oak) Boucher style banjos with 27" scale and brass hardware, and 2 scaled down Stichter style banjos with 13" rims and 28" scale will be ready to go in late November.

 

This stuff will go on Ebay at that time OR write to me and put the Ebay money in your pocket.

I played one a few weeks ago...really nice instruments. It snaps sharply, and has a full low sound. Really cuts. Beautiful to hold and play.  

I have some tambourines ready to go soon. They're $75 and $10 shipping. !2 inches in diameter, goatskin, amber colored hardwood rim. 4 sets of hand hammered BRASS jingles. LOUD. Don't say I didn't warn ya!

email me at bellbanjos@musician.org

Just received a maple banjo rim today from you folks. Looks great and will make a whopper of a banjo! Got some walnut, pine, cherry to choose from for the neck. I recommend these pots to all you folks out there. Priced right and fine workmanship. Thanks again

Thank YOU, Gil.  Good luck making your banjo.  If you need any tips, just write.  -Terry

Just received the Tambourine!!  It looks and sounds great!!  I'm taking it to Harpers Ferry this weekend.  Maybe I'll have a chance to play it some with the "cool kids" like Greg!!

Thaks for shipping it so quickly and well packaged!
