J.B. Schall Ball End Bracket Shoe

Solid brass, extra wide 3/4″  base, no “lifting”.   The only wide base ball shoe on the market.  Styled after original J.B Schall Shoes, this bracket shoe will give your banjo the 19th century look you were going for.  Small base ball shoes tend to “lift” and dig into the rim of your banjo over time.  These provide a stable base for your hook and nut and will never lift. Made in the USA.

Armadillo Armrest

The Armadillo Armrest is Pisgah Banjo’s feature wooden armrest!  Ergonomically designed to improve playing, it allows for the most comfortable playing experience.  It is made in the USA at the Pisgah Banjo Company workshop using native Appalachian Hardwoods Walnut and Cherry (also available in Richlite!).

Brass mounting feet allow for easy installation and adjustment with only a bracket wrench or The Banjo Tweaker required to install.  The L-feet attach to the banjo’s bracket shoes and hooks using the tension nuts and are compatible with all hook-mounted heads, regardless of bracket spacing.  It is universally sized to fit any brand 11″ or 12″ open-back banjo by floating over the tension hoop and head, while not interfering with your banjo’s tone.   Natural, water-based finish.

 

Grain, and color may vary due to the nature of wood.

We are sorry, no left handed version available at this time, however our vintage-style brass Wire Armrest can be used by both left and right handed players.

Easy to install/remove, high quality, fully adjustable old-time banjo strap!  No Tools Required!  Finally a strap made for old-time players and old-time banjos.  We understand the need to remove your banjo strap once in a while so we made it easy! Made from the highest quality CrazyHorse BlackJack leather, this handsome strap is the last one you will ever need to buy.  Simply slip the strap though 2 or 3 banjo hooks and fasten with the attached button studs.  No tying, no removing of brackets, no fuss.  Take on and off as much as you please…the more you use it, the easier it is.   Handmade by local leather smith Danielle Wright in North Carolina.

 

 

*Note: Product image of darker colored leather shows Bridle leather. We are no longer using that style of leather but brand and strap style is otherwise the same.  Current leather is CrazyHorse BlackJack, featured in the lighter colored leather pictures.
