Well, here it is!
-19 inch scale
-10 inch banjo rim
-maple and ebony
-gotoh tuners, worth strings, renaissance head
-custom nickel plated steel hardware
-tuned dgbe with high d

This instrument could also have 4 steel strings in various tunings, including gcea, cgda, and gdae.

It has a nice loud sound but is pretty and mellow due to the 10 inch pot and 19 inch scale.

We should be ready to produce this in early 2011!

Very nice. That thing is pretty.

I would love to see/ hear a video on this! So far I have preferred my regular banjo to the banjoleles I have heard. I like the idea of the option for steel strings, and the longer scale might make a prettier sound.

Aloha Arron,
Hey man that's teasing us..it's so pretty, at that scale it must have an deep rich sound!!! WOW, like them Plectrums....thanks for sharing...MM Stan...

Yeah, I need to make a video today. All the sizes of beansprout sound warm and nice for a banjo uke, but this one really does!
