Thanks for the getback! I had already ordered a flat.My 100 yr old Lyon Healy fretboard was worn out especially after I began to remove the original frets...guess I'll abandon the radius idea.Your opinion was jus' what I needed!I'm using EVO gold frets on it.
@cormacdoc23 Hi, Thanks for the query. Sometimes there is a waiting period for certain banjos, the longest waiting period is for our top of the line Setanta banjo. Best thing to do is email tom@banjo.ie or phone for on the spot information. Thank you, Tom
Do you radius your fingerboards or is it something that would have a positive effect on technique? I'm replacing a fingerboard. Your style is highly proficient BTW! Great pickin'
Very difficult to find steel string sets for tuning EADG on short scale twenty inches or less. The G usually has insuficient tension for good intonation.
@flatw00d1 Hi, No, we do not radius our fingerboards, I believe the fingerboard is in general too narrow for radius on tenor banjo. I have played some banjos with radius FB and in my opinion did not find any perticular advantage v flat. I hope this is some help. Tom
Truly the best banjos around!
I want a Clareen so bad!!!
My nephew has a Clareen already but wants an Clareen Oyster - I think he's getting one soon. Lovely instruments

May I ask how your pots are constructed, with 3 or 4 layers or are they blocked and then turned down? Thanks!!

whoever is playing the intro needs to tune his banjo. However, Clareen makes a great instrument, I own one and love it
