 old time five string banjos lovingly carved and brought to new life from original vintage banjo ukuleles and banjo mandolins.

Each banjo is first restored structurally and upgraded using traditional methods and materials, and in keeping with the style and character of the vintage piccolo banjos of the 1890's.
