oooohhhhh nice banjo neck,

Cultural check needed, are blondes called "sandy" in your part of the world?, they are here in Aus, if they are then its a really funny double pun, if not..... oh well.......

Thanks for the kudo's on the necks.

I had to think long and hard to come up with a headstock design for the banjo that would fit my logo, so I ended up with one that is round on the top. My wife calls it a "lollipop" neck. It is my first attempt at building a banjo. This one is all walnut and I hope the new owner is happy with it.

My advise is not to sand if you are necked.
