We’re proud to welcome Mr. Billy Copeland of Allerdt, Tennessee to the Sullivan Banjo family, as he is the owner of the very first production Sullivan Vintage-35 Banjo. We’ve been working on the components inside this banjo for many years, culminating in the final version of the V-35 tone ring last month. This particular banjo is a mahogany model and was assembled for around four hours at the time this video was shot – The sound speaks for itself. Check out the video below of Murrell and Billy giving it a test drive with “Bury Me Beneath the Willow”.
We’ll have much more information on the Sullivan V-35 on this site in the coming weeks, including pictures, specifications, and more video!
