Wow Richard that almost looks like it was made for a banjo. Sure I would say love to check it out. The reason I didn't want animal skin was that sometime it can be humid here and real skins can loosen up with the moisture.

Does look like it was made for us Banjo Luthier wannabees huh? lol

here ya go ---> tanbourine

currently out of stock on the 12", but he has from 4" up to 10", most people use a 10", I wanted a 12", but that will be pretty large. You can always message them to see when the 12 will be back in stock if you want one that large, there are others on eBay, but most are a lot more expensive and have the symbols in them.

Shipping in the ad is crazy, but I got mine in 13 days

That's cool, pick. Definitely a banjo, but absolutely a swamp witch.

I call it a  "goat skin reso"  has more of a  reso sound imho . Reso was the plan/ aim  all along  anyway . maybe i'm in male ego denial  ;-)

Hey pick I'm lookin at your re-use of the cymbals. I'm not sure what that is I'm lookin at but.....if you added a thin top to that you could make an African thumb piano and really whail on it especially if it was in a pentatonic scale.

Yeah , it's just a" tamborine" .. without the tam ,  a jangle smasher if you will . i added some beer caps  for mojo points ..  you can click on the picture to see the full image  . 

i agree , it  still has more potential
