Fifty years old is pretty special! The following quote is from our wonderful customer Kris Herfkens: I have always wanted to play the banjo. I’m not sure why, but the sound of banjo music thrills me. I played a bit of guitar when I was a kid, but had […]
Chuck tells me this is one the hardest, yet most rewarding banjos he has ever built. We know how special every child is, and when he was contacted by a mother who had tragically lost her daughter, he knew an emotional roller coaster was headed his way. Cheryl’s daughter […]

James and his family have been long time family friends. As a high school student, James contributed many hours in an apprenticeship relationship here in […]
