You're a man who knows his guitars.
The body (3 piece) and neck are mahogany, with a glue joint at the heel. The fretboard is very pale rosewood, with a slight curve to it. The trus rod is a hollow box bar, 10mm to a side, fixed and non-adjustable, as I set it right in the first place. Should never need adjusting, ever, as the timber was well-seasoned, about 6 or 7 years before biulding. I had originally planned to make the body round, but I left a corner for the strap button, otherwise it was very top heavy.
By the way, it has 4 strings, being an 'Irish' tenor banjo tuned e,a,d,g at base. Are you in the USA, do you have them?
Feel free to ask if you need any making/repairing advice. Twas my job for a few years.
