Overview

The Hg2 is an evolution of my first hg design, with a slightly different bracing pattern, the bevelled armrest and a few extra refinements. I also introduced a new pinless bridge design based on the work of the great Jeffrey Elliott. This pinless bridge anchors the strings with tiny metal rods (I use titanium) and allows for a very light and user friendly system. For the bass tuners I opted for mini guitar tuners for a more precise tuning over the more traditional banjo machine heads. It is possible to have more bass strings and to outfit it with sharping levers for extra convenience on the stage and less retuning!
