BANJO VELLUM

HIGH QUALITY CALF SKIN

HAND PICKED

Perhaps not the cheapest vellums money can buy but undoubtedly the best - clean, white, of an even thickness and no tiny holes. Many players prefer a calf skin vellum because they claim they produce a warm superior tone compared to a plastic head.

You must allow at least a 3" overlap when fitting a calf skin banjo head. A 15" vellum is suitable for banjos with a 12" head diameter or less. A 10" vellum is suitable for banjos with a 7" head diameter or less.

We provide detailed and easy to understand instructions on how to fit a calf skin vellum.

A banjo vellum should be replaced at least every ten years. The older the vellum, the more the tone deteriorates.

15" - £22.00.   14" - £18.00.   12" - £17.00.   10" - £15.00.
