Hi, y'all. I've posted a handful of photos on my home page of my new/old Buckeye #39, which arrived only a week ago, before I have Greg work his magic and switch the nickel-plated hardware for antiqued brass and a skin head.

Have a peek, if you like, and I'll post the "after" photos once I get it back from Greg.

Keep on pickin'!

	banjochuck says: 3/3/2016 8:39:51 AM Hey, Geoff, You obviously have great taste, too! I think our banjos are competing for Greg's time and attention. I'm hoping he'll finish tweaking mine any day now, and I'll be able to post some new photos of its antiqued brass accoutrements, scoop plate, and goatskin head. Stay tuned, and send photos of yours when it arrives. Chuck
Winged Words says: 3/3/2016 1:57:02 PM Yes there's been a little delay while Greg does your refurb, but it's a worthy cause and after 4 years on the waiting list what's another couple of weeks. I think he's nearly done with #39 and sounded pleased with it last time we emailed.
	banjochuck says: 3/3/2016 2:48:55 PM Hey, Geoff, that's good to hear. I haven't heard from Greg since Monday, and don't want to bug him too much. But, he said he would stretch the head, and put it all back together, and that should be that. Then, he'll be able to focus on finishing yours. It looks great so far, with that slotted headstock. Nice!
