Banjo Repair & Restoration

We have done a lot of banjo Repair & Restoration, seen and worked on a lot of beautiful banjos in the years I was at buffalo brothers guitars. Some were arch tops and some were even fret-less if you can believe it. It was very common however to see 5 string banjos come across my bench. Over the years I have seen the popularity of banjos grow. It has increased across a wide age range with the influence of bands like Mumford & sons and a return to folk roots music.
