This website will chronicle my efforts in building a 5-string openback banjo

Building the Neck

Status: In progress -- just finished gluing up the hard maple / walnut laminate

Specifications

Since I am making this from scratch, there are few absolute specifications that I have but will attempt to do the following:

Scale	26.1875
Neck Wood	Hard Maple / Black Walnut Laminate
Fretboard	Gabon Ebony
Neck Attachment	Twin Coordinator Rods

The Fretboard / Design

The fretboard starts off by calculating the fret locations from the scale length to get the length of the fretboard / neck.

The calculations were done in Openoffice and are downloadable here.
