British Banjo Parts

[Joshua Levin-Epstein]

Anybody know anyone in the US who specializes in British Banjos? I have a very nice tenor in the shop that needs a machine replaced and would be worth the effort to search out an original. I am already looking into European specialists.

 

Thanks,

Thanks for your reply. The Waverlys do look the business. A set of them would be a bigger bullet to bit on than I have teeth for at the moment, so I might just go for one to keep me going. I know that old ones are probably not going to be hugely reliable, but did you ever get around to selling the old ones that you took off?

Matthew,

 

The banjo (and its parts) belong to a customer, so I don't know if they're available. Personally, I would install new machines. Gotohs seem to be a good choice for the price.
