- Alvarez was founded in 1965 as a result of the partnership between Japanese luthier Kazuo Yairi and St. Louis-based American investors.
My banjo is either a 71, 73 or 75. I’m basing the date off of current Reverb posts. I honestly don’t think anyone can tell the exact year their 70’s banjos were made without a serial number. Mine wasn’t serialized.

As always the ' deliverance ' was spot on 👍
🤣
Is there a stringed instrument you can't make beautiful music with? Wow.
BTW that was great hearing you on the podcast last week. Loved learning a little bit more about you.
Thanks! Glad someone listened to the podcast.
you always have something interesting for us, love it
you need to tag this video with “ASMR”.
Very nice
I've never seen a banjo with a resonator, very cool work sir.
Oh, out of interest, what is the fret board width at the nut? I've not seen many details online. Thanks 😀
Neck Width at the Nut: 1 1/4"
Scale Length Nut to Bridge: 26 1/4"
@@MarkGutierrez Thanks man, appreciate it 😀
Have you considered filling the engraving with black or brown epoxy and sanding it flush?
I considered it. But I was scared I'd lose the very fine detail by adding epoxy. I'm gonna try the epoxy thing in the next build. (spoiler alert: it will be an engraved fretboard).
