The Tom Hanway Swallow Tail
At the request of virtuoso banjo player and noted Irish stylist, Tom Hanway (see his Mel Bay Book/CD here, or his website), Geoff Stelling, with much inspirational help from Tom, designed the Swallow Tail, a truly Celtic banjo from stem to stern. The swallow, oak leaf, acorn, and closed knot inlays relate to the sacred Druid and Celtic traditions of the past. The neck and resonator are made of curly maple and stained with a sunburst Cremona-style finish similar to the Virginian. The Deluxe version of this model features bead-blasted and subtly engraved metal parts and chrome plating. Both the Standard and the Deluxe models feature an inlaid abalone and mother-of-pearl swallow in the center of the resonator that matches the peghead swallow inlay.
