Description
This is the third Copperhead banjo I’ve made. The peghead and the frailing scoop have a hammered copper plate that has been chemically treated to produce an antique patina. The Large 12″ canteen gourd produces great bass tones. It has a natural goatskin head that is attached with copper tacks. This one is sure to be an attention-getter as well as a great player.
