Description
Banjo #538 “Bottle Gourdie” — A refined take on one of my most popular gourd banjo designs. This fretless 5-string features a Black Walnut and Ash neck crowned with a Classic Minstrel peghead. Its bottle-shaped gourd body is fitted with dual skin heads and twin sound ports, delivering a balanced, open tone with remarkable depth and clarity. The Bottle Gourdie embodies the perfect blend of traditional craftsmanship and natural resonance — a favorite among players who appreciate authenticity and character.
