Mega dump of the goat and calfskin banjo heads that I’ve done over the past months.
Every single skin and dye job are completely natural and unique, creating a one-of-a-kind look and an unbeatable tone!
Does your banjo sound like trash?
It’s probably the sheet of plastic you have covering the top of it.
Your ear hears things through its own tiny skin-mounted drum, rattled upon by tiny bones and sinews.
Your ear likes sounds that are made the same way.
The original banjos did this, with skin heads, gut strings, and bone nuts.
Modern banjos can sound jarring and harsh because they replaced these natural materials with plastics and steel wires.
So get a Jackalope Skin, and make your banjo sound like it’s supposed to sound.
(All Jackalope Skins are made with all natural goat and calf skin rawhides. No jackalopes are harmed in the making of these products.)
