This is a sound demo for a Tadkud banjo I just finished, my first banjo.
The rim is a block wood construction with a ring of cherry and then a ring of walnut.
Neck through construction, I constructed the neck all complete scratch build.
There was no pre-fabricated parts at all, obviously, except for the mechanical tuners
and things like that.
[A#] So, [C#] the rim and the head is calf skin dyed in coffee and food coloring.
I attached it to the rim with hide glue and bronze colored tacks here.
The neck is a combination of poplar, the bulk of the neck is poplar.
And then I spliced in some hard rock maple up at the top [A] because I wasn't sure I was
going to use friction pegs or mechanical [C#m] tuners.
Has a plate of cherry and then the actual fingerboard itself, first there is a layer
of hard rock maple, about a quarter of an inch, and then just about an eighth of an
inch of this paddock for the actual fingerboard.
And got gold frets and gold planetary tuners, gold tailpiece.
And the bridge is maple, spalted maple.
It was actually [E] part of a double base bridge.
It was cut off a remnant from a setup on a base bridge.
So, good stuff.
But it's a long neck banjo.
I did some research and I made it a 31 inch scale.
I could get a little bit lower tone, I could tune it down to E, but at the same time [F#m]
fretting
it [E] wouldn't be so much of an issue.
I made the fingerboard [N]
pretty wide down here and thick.
I thought it was going to be a bit too clunky, but actually I think it's kind of advantageous
because your fingers are not very far away from the fretboard.
Nice and wide down here, almost guitar-like.
[E] So we'll see how it goes.
[C#m] Thanks [F] [E]
