The neck/rim connection of a traditional banjo has it´s problems, especially when the rim is thin. Only two screws hold these two critical  parts together. Changing the tuning often causes unbalanced string tension and the banjo gets out of tune. Neck and rim of the GOTTSCHALL "Future Banjo" are merged into one solid, sound producing unit. This patented construction let`s the banjo stay perfectly in tune and transports it into new sound dimensions. A magnetic pickup is also an elementary part of this new design.
