Banjo 041 Zepp Country Music, Inc
Chalk Mountain Model. This is one of a set of two prototypes for this model. The Chalk Mountain peghead has an air of Royalty. The inlay of the Wizard gives you some idea of my favorite book. It has a laminated neck with colored veneers running up each side of the center strip, under the peghead, fingerboard and heel cap. It comes with a standard shaped heel, a 25.5” scale, a double action truss-rod and a Scalloped Bone nut. Ebony fingerboard and peghead overlay. This model comes with a 11" x 1/2" x 3" two-ply rim with an Ebony tone ring and rim cap. 5-star tuning pegs, Pearl side dots, no-knot tailpiece and a Renaissance Head.

Testimonial "I am the proud new owner of #041 - I was the customer in Zepp's store admiring the instrument when you called last Saturday, and I took it home with me. It is a beautiful instrument (I love the Lord of the Rings inspired inlays) and sounds at least as good as it looks - from a warm, butter 'cluck' over the scoop to clear and bright by the bridge. Keep up the good work - you certainly have been blessed with a talent for this." Later note: "Each banjo that you build brings joy to a musician's life - By all means use anything I say on your testimonials page! And I promised Zepp I'd bring her back in a few weeks so he can record a sample for his/your mp3 page. Give me another year, and I'll be back for your tubaphone model." Alan Butterfield #041 |
