my Washburn B14 5 string is 18-7/8" Nut to 22nd Fret and 19-3/8" nut to body
I can only imagine the sound projection if a 5-string Banj-"O" had a "salad bowl" Ovation roundback resonator! It would knock all the other band members off the stage! :cool: :D |

nut to bridge = 13.125x2=26.25
...that is, I assume you mean the nut on the Banj-"O" neck, not the nut holding it :rolleyes: |

Location: 6 String Ranch | Right, a 26"ish scale then. I was successful in getting the pear shaped body so we'll see how this project comes out. Probably will take a few months. This should be interesting! |

Tim, Thank you very much for bringing this to my attention. The guitar is #@*&^&# beautiful! The body is like new and the neck s/b shows fading of the red and very nice curl. It plays and sounds great. |

Location: 6 String Ranch | So it's a 2ish hour ride north for you? Maybe you want to check out the 5 string frickenbanjer before it gets sent out east? It's a month or two away at least. |
