Meet Cassiopeia, the second custom build out of the shop for TomCollinsBanjo ✨🧜🏻

Serving as the sister piece to Tom’s 5+1 electric banjo, Poseidon: the name draws from the myth of a queen who boasted that her beauty surpassed even the sea nymphs (the Nereids). Her hubris enraged Poseidon, who banished her to the night sky. Tied to her celestial throne, she spends half of every rotation hanging upside down in the heavens…an eternal lesson in humility.

This is the second instrument made from a reclaimed Montréal public piano, hand painted by Thaïla Khampo - an attempt at keeping the spirit of a great initiative alive while breathing life into a brand new instrument.

About nine years ago I dismantled a public piano which had been beautifully painted by Montreal artist and friend Thaïla Khampo for the borough of Little Italy…a stone’s throw from the shop. This great outdoor public initiative livens entire neighbourhoods during the summer months, enabling amateurs and budding pianists alike to noodle anything from a few whimsical notes to entire Rachmaninov concertos (I’ve seen it!) across the city’s parks. Once the season comes to a close, these instruments are usually destined for the dump site after weeks of exposure to the elements…

This is the second instrument I’ve made from reclaimed and painted public piano parts, and is an attempt at keeping the spirit of a great initiative alive while at the same time breathing life into a brand new instrument.

This one was made for my friend TomCollinsBanjo and will be his second foray with me, in the wild world of electric (drum-less) banjos…a concept Tom dreamt up entirely on his own - Truly honoured to have him commission this second instrument.

Cherry body, roasted maple neck, Rosewood fingerboard - with a Novak DeArmond gold foil in the neck position and a Lollar Deluxe Foil in the bridge.

This six string (5+1) electric banjo started its life as a Formica diner-style kitchen table, found on the sidewalk near our shop.

The instrument is built with a Spanish cedar core, a back capped with 100 year old locust from Snargle Fleem ’s backyard and a torrefied maple neck with an asymmetrical, semi-slotted headstock.

The banjo also features a tunneled 6th string, an ebony board and bridge, a frailing scoop and the classic Ozark aluminum banding/Art Deco tailpiece combo.
Loaded with two shimmery Lollar Pickups Deluxe Foil gold foils that you can split via the push/pull volume pots.

This beauty is Ottawa-bound as we speak. Thank you for your trust, patience, and incredible design input, Scott! I can’t wait to hear it roar through your always evolving rig ⚡️🪕⚡️

This uber cool 25.5” scale 5+1 electric banjo started its life as a Formica diner-style kitchen table, found on the side of the road near our shop. This is the second stringed offspring the table has yielded (including roadrunner guitars ’ very own Ozark⚡️).

A little rundown of three custom Ozark electric banjos currently being finished in the shop - each with its own very different appointments 🙌🏼🪕
(apologies for the stuffy nasal inflection… it’s been a rough week! 🤧).

Every couple of years, I try to set aside some time to work on a special project that gives me the creative freedom to approach guitar building from a slightly different angle.

Here is a Rosetta Model 3 in a faded canary yellow finish, featuring a full tortoise fingerboard and matching headstock. The instrument features an incredibly warm (yet incisive) surface-mounted Charlie Christian pickup, courtesy of the brilliant - housed within a McCarty style pickguard adorned with a vintage faded rose illustration.

Other features include my standard adjustable neck system (inspired by the Stauffer design), a single violin style f-hole, and the classic Rosetta Art Deco tailpiece.

Built with figured Bastogne walnut back and sides and an arched spruce top, this instrument has been taking shape over the last six months alongside several other commissions. I’m thrilled with how the instrument came together and am excited to finally see it leave the shop!

This guitar will be available through and is a rare opportunity to skip the usual 16–22 month wait and acquire a truly unique instrument from my workshop.
