Thread Name: Banjo Luthier Needed in DC Area
Subject: RE: Banjo Luthier Needed in DC Area
Thanks all.

I've replaced two skin banjo uke heads myself, but am never sure about the tension, etc. This job seemed to be different, and for some reason more complicated. So, I wss thinking about a Luthier that knows banjos. I just have to find a 10.5" head, preferably fibreskin. HMT, Pickers Supply, or Turtle Hill all sound like options I will check out. HMT is on the way home from work, but I've heard mixed reviews on their repair work.

Let you know how it turns out.

Hey BOBERT. WE HAVE GOT TO GET TOGETHER AND PLAY AGAIN SOON! You should stop by the new Barbershop next time you are up. It is pretty cool and the jam seems to be having a rebirth.
