    Wonderful banjos, so sad they quit making them. Always wanted a Staghorn.

    Excellent video! Nothing beats a Stelling Banjo! Amazing tone and unbeatable craftsmanship! That's why I have three!

    The patience and craftsmanship that goes into these instruments reflects the price I paid for my beautiful Stelling Red Fox. Thanks Geoff.

    I own a 1979 Stelling Superstar. A truly great and beautiful Banjo.

    Wonderful banjos, I had a Stelling 10 years ago and sold it for electric instruments/amps....dumb move.... now I'm back in the market, I want a Stelling back

    I have to agree about the superior quality, power, and "brightness" of the Stelling, even though I own and play a Gibson. Geoff is a prince of a fellow, too. If I was in the market for a high end banjo, I'd much rather do business with a personable fellow like Geoff than an impersonal giant corporation. Word.

    One solid instrument made with Tony Pass style block reclaimed lumber for the rim. Almost too loud! Very nice!

    Yeah you have a unique sound you sound like a a pre-war master tone I believe that’s what they’re supposed to sound like early. I am happy to say that I have a sterling stone corn and also have 74. I believe it is hearts and flowers or is one that the finish fell off of it on the resonator I had a 1980 Gibson RB 250 and I traded it and $100 for the older Stelling banjo and and never look back

    What guitar is he using in the Video? Is it a Martin? Does anybody know the model and Name? It‘s nearly as beautiful as the banjos😍

    Anyone know the name of the lovely tune Tony Ellis is playing? Sounds like an Irish ballad.

      In his segment, Tony Ellis plays his original compositions titled Dance on the Clouds, Becky Thatcher Waltz, The Quest, Paddlewheel, Wind Chimes & Nursery Rhymes. Thanks for watching!

    Okay. I officially give up :-) Craft is somehow the wrong term to use in this video. Love would be a closer fit. In any case, thank you. It was very beautiful. I love music and the banjo. But I can't play a lick.
