Welcome!

For all of us that already have a Helix and those that don't, come join!  We are small in numbers, but I prefer to think of us as the "select few" that are playing these fine instruments.

Glad you started this group. Everybody else had a group for their banjo of choice. I've had my cherry blossom since christmas and just love it.

I, unfortunately, don't own one, but I am still fascinated by the concept. and appreciate your thinking on it.
Maybe someday.....

At 5 pounds... mine still gets the bulk of my practice hours. Just like my other banjos, it's going to get SS frets someday.

Howdy from Chicago.
I'm waiting on my Helix, just weeks away now.
Been a LONG, long wait compounded by anticipation. Larry's been sending pics, going to be a beaut.

The wait is the worst. I was trying to get some special inlays done but couldn't wait any longer and Larry was nice enough to suggest that he could put on a neck that he had in his shop.

Jackrabbit, been playing music forever but banjo is new...
Oh man, yeah, since mid-January. I've been DYING to start playing it. It's a daily struggle.
I got some custom inlays put in there, from Brian England Custom Inlay, cool abalone ones, Larry's putting them in now, I think, laid a maple strip along the back of the neck, it'll all be great.

I'll toss a few pics on my page, give me a few weeks to get rolling playing-wise and I'll toss up some sort of review.
I think it's the last Jackrabbit for a while, bamboo'd run dry, last I knew.

The excitement builds. oolee you are one lucky dude.
It is worth waiting for, as quality takes time.

Oh for sure, I'm hyped. Larry's too accommodating.
