Howdy folks,
Our shop supervisor is healthy, back up and going strong and we are back under way with BHO / Sullivan Vintage 35 Banjo collaboration. The pictures below are of the walnut neck bound with some beautiful ivoroid / black / white binding and fretted up ready for some finish sanding. Next we’ll be applying the nitro lacquer finish with the amber toner, watch for some photos we’ll keep you in the loop as the finishing process progresses.
Your comments are welcome.

Too bad you couldn’t have used some walnut with some curly figure.

Wow, that inlay pattern is beautiful. BTW you installed an OFF rim in my parts Gibson several months ago. It boosted the volume and improved the tone; I love it. Last week I was at the CBA festival in California in a jam session and a fiddle player sitting next to me asked, “How old is that Gibson? It has a wonderful growl.”
I think that was code for, “Is that a pre-War?”
That’s the kind of question I love to hear. Thank you, FQMS.
