Yup, the gourd banjo is finished and I think think it turned out pretty much alright. It's tuned down about a full step lower than standard so it's somewhere...

  • Yeah that's pretty cool to grow one that way. I actually got to play that banjo when I took a 3 day workshop with Adam. He's a good teacher too!

  • Jim..I just watched an Adam Hurt vid on Youtube he was playing his bottleneck gourd banjo. He gave a detailed description of how the builder grew the gourd so that the top and bottom ended up flat. This summer I`m going to give it a try.

  • Thanks Denny!

  • Well it won't be anything as good as what you're doing Jim but I'll give it a lash.

    I just can't get over how great your gourd gits sound! They resonate soooooo good! And look amazing!

  • Thanks Maddog. It would be cool to see what you'd do with a gourd!

  • Great series of vids Jim! Might give one of these a go now that I've seen the vids, thanks so much for doing these!
