Thanks for sharing your experience. I know Brian has a travel banjo that’s based on the mountain banjo, but it’s interesting to hear that you can break down the mountain to do this.

I’m really curious about the sound of the 12″ compared to the 11″. I’ve built one of the older Americana kits and get comments all the time about how nice it sounds. With the 12″ option, I might consider building one more. I suppose I could just order it fretless and it’ll be different from the other no matter what. 🙂

Thanks Brian.

Building my first carver kit changed everything for me. I had a banjo I bought at guitar center and I was trying to learn, but I really had to force myself to practice. Once I built my mountain banjo I had to force myself to put it down. Now my americana is my main banjo and people ask me about it all the time. Hopefully at least some of them have come to the site and bought one for themselves. Thanks for bringing attention to these forums.
