Dark Moon Dough Bowl Banjo

I carved a Dark Moon man in Walnut this morning and added it to my Poplar neck with oak ears and combover. Gitty vintage style tuners. Mahogany nut, Walnut Mike Orr fretboard with oil painted markers.

Fomhorach. Thanks for the tip. I used a dark wood instead of stain. I have the Maple moon to use next time.

Drop it in wood stain overnight next time.

Thanks Jim. I wasn't sure about the dark moon but I wanted some contrast. I put a maple moon on first but it didn't stand out.

Thanks Uncle John. We both have our ways, don't we. I like yours quite a lot. I liked your track on Pick's album. Very nice.

Yup. You've reached a wonderful and recognizable trademark style,
