Reactions to Centore Bandura №3 at Bandura@Bobriwka this year!! Thank you all for your input and support 😊

This bandura is not quite complete because I ran out of time to finish the peremykachy (semitone levers) before B@B, but those will be added in be coming months :)

The tuning pins on a bandura are one of the biggest contributors to its weight - individually they don’t weigh that much, but then you multiply that number by 62! I’ve been working on a super lightweight tuning pin made of titanium with the bottom drilled out which weighs less than half of what a standard steel tuning pin weighs. This should reduce the instrument weight by almost half a pound!

I’ve also opted to use a much tighter thread, so the tuning pin doesn’t move as far downward with each turn. This should make it easier to get the correct final string termination height.

Thank you for all the support 🥰
