I'd bet that nut was fully moveable on the original instruments, like the bridge is. When Boucher made his, he copied the style of others without knowing why it is that way. Picking up my Don Gardner version next week...hoping I can learn to play as good as you do!

I could not help but notice that the string spacing is the same on the tail piece as it is on the bridge. Many subsequent designs have a smaller spacing on the tail piece than the bridge.

Hi cliff I believe it was,in the French pronunciation a" Boo shay"...but I'm sure it is addressed in the way you pronounced it in the southern mountains

I watched video where George talks about the slightly wonky 5th peg on a lot of the originals and how it was most likely caused by the guy reaming out the hole, leaning a bit tko heavily on the reamer. I think these banjos were made quickly and cheaply. Hence the flat spots on the sides and the neck being glued in two parts... it's easier to make the dowel rod this way. Great vid man. Keep it up.

Looking over Boucher's originals one does get the sense that he (and whoever helped) was a real fast working pro. They're all slapped together using minimal materials but each one is a really nice piece.

Have you got her tuned down to D?
@CliftonHicksbanjo5 жыл бұрын
I did not use a tuner so it's in standard tuning dropped down to where my voice bottoms out on the bass string. Neighborhood of D or E.

Nice banjo. I've got a Terry Bell made Sweeney style. Fun to play.
