BHO Custom Build – Heading to Finishing!
We've finished up the binding and purfling on the resonator and have sent it and the neck into the finishing room. So far this is coming together to be an incredibly beautiful banjo! The wood on the resonator is exceptionally pretty - can't wait to see this thing after staining!

BHO Custom Build Progress Update
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.

Fingerboard and peghead inlays were attached to the neck today - next up we'll trim the peghead and begin shaping the neck!

Banjo Hangout Custom Build
Hello everyone!
Just wanted to give you an update on the construction progress on the Banjo Hangout/Sullivan Banjo collaboration project. We’ve started the process, and at the moment are waiting for a few components. We’ve taken the neck and done prelimniary cuts on it, squared it off, and put the ears on the peghead. Duane took it through these first steps, and the neck is clamped and waiting for inlays. Lorne is in the process of making the inlays now- we should have them within a week!...
