The Brake Fluid Banjo

I just finished the “Heavy Duty” Brake Fluid banjo. This is another A-scale oil can banjo using an “ebay neck”. I replaced the plastic nut on the neck with bone, and I made a cedar bridge. The tail-piece is once again a kitchen fork. I strung it with Nylgut strings. I’ll have to figure out some kind of strap for it.  I’ll shoot a video soon so you can hear how nice it sounds. I’m learning that every can is a little bit different.

I think this can will be for sale, so if you’ve always wanted an oil can banjo, let’s talk. My email address is on the about page of this blog.
