Ce qui diff\u00e9rencie un banjo Hutchings ?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most important part of the banjo is the rim \u2013 you can have the most expensive tonering available but fitted to a poor rim the banjo will still be average at best.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I build all my block rims myself, from solid walnut and take great care to make sure they are perfect \u2013 the results show in the improved tone and power of my banjos.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve tried different combinations and I think european walnut is the best tonewood for a banjo rim.  It delivers the brilliance of maple but with more of the other frequencies too resulting in a more \u201ccomplete\u201d tone.  <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compared to the more usual method of constriction (3 Ply) there is more wood and less glue in a block rim.  This is effect even more pronounced on a 1\/2\u2033 thick rim.   Less glue \u2013 more tone !<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The metal parts I use are the best quality items from the USA, Czech Republic and Japan \u2013 I won\u2019t compromise my own work by fitting cheaper hardware !<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banjos standard<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My range of standard banjos are great sounding and playing instruments all built around my block rim.  They are simply decorated (but beautifully finished) so this keeps the cost down.  <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banjo irlandais avec frettes en \u00e9ventail (multi diapason)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imbalanced string tension is a common problem with Irish tuned banjos and is caused by the combination of low tuning (GDAE) and short scale length \u2013 particularly on the 17 fret banjo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les banjos 19 cases ont un diapason plus long qui permet une meilleur tension, mais l\u2019espacement des cases rends le doigt\u00e9 de certains morceaux violon\/mandoline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le banjo irlandais avec frettes en \u00e9ventail est aussi facile \u00e0 jouer qu'un 17 cases standard, mais il a aussi les avantages suivants gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 la tension optimis\u00e9e...\nEspacement \u00e9troit sur l\nes cordes des m\u00e9lodies\nTonalit\u00e9 \u00e9quilibr\u00e9e sur le manche, Le Low G devient utile!\nLe justesse est am\u00e9lior\u00e9e tout le long de la touche, les accords r\u00e9sonnent mieux<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An irish banjo with fan frets is as easy to play as a regular 17 fret banjo but has the following advantages due to the optimised string tension\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Espacement \u00e9troit sur les cordes des m\u00e9lodies<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Balance of tone across the fretboard. The low G is now useful<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Intonation is improved along the length of the fretboard. Chords now ring out<\/p>\n\n\n\n
