The traditions of Bluegrass have long honored the "vintage" banjo designs from the 1930's. In honor of these treasured traditions, Nechville has introduced a limited edition Vintage Heli-Mount that blends traditional banjo art and design with the ultimate banjo pot design. The neck starts with premium old growth curly maple and is fashioned the old way, by hand. The fingerboard is your choice of rosewood or ebony. The inlay is a tastefully altered version of Gibson's "wreath" inlay design.

Curly maple resonator with an ivory binding containing a black/white stripe
