About Banjo Revolution
Spring is finally here - and at
Nechville, new ideas are blossoming! The Banjo Revoluti
In the current world of banjo, there are many fine instruments but not too many real choices. Most other banjo companies stopped with the near century old designs that still dominate the traditional market. Current music is now quite friendly to the inclusion of banjo sounds, and the road is wide open for a bold emergence of new banjo sounds. Thanks to the many true alternatives making their way out of the Nechville banjo labs, you'll be able to meet your needs in terms of perfect tone, ultimate comfort and light weight.
We have begun to build a network of
associates to stage test the next generation of prototypes emerging from the
Nechville labs. The Banjo Revolution Network <http://www.banjorev.com>allows
you membership in an exclusive group of adventurous musicians! As a teaching
pro, store owner, or certified banjo authority, you may be eligible as a Banjo
Revolution Associate whereby you can purchase new technology without risk while
fostering the evolution of new banjo designs! We ask for your report on the
success or failure of new ideas, while we continue the quest for your ultimate
banjo. Other players and interested persons can also participate in the
Revolution by working through one of our trained Banjo Revolution Associates.
Tom Nechville is available to discuss bringing the newest custom options
directly to you at special associate level prices.
Those interested in ideas for a custom
build banjo should visit
Banjorev.com
and submit their ideas to one of the Banjo Revolution associates listed.
Working with the Banjo Revolution team is
the most efficient way to address special needs and custom solutions to unique
banjo problems. Our Banjo Revolution web site highlights choices that cannot be
found
anywhere else.
Nechville continues to expand its
presence in the marketplace by supporting select dealers with several tried and
tested models. Dealers will also benefit from the Banjo Revolution as Nechville
awareness grows through our worldwide network of banjo professionals and new
products are thoroughly tested before they reach the stores.
In our quest for great sound and perfect
function, we have begun to incorporate rolling rims into many of our standard
model banjos. Our popular "Cyclotronic" tone ring contains bearings, or "tone
spheres," inside the tone ring which allows easy tightening of the Helimount
head. This mounts the tone ring in a non-dampened way, allowing for maximum
resonance and beauty of tone. We have recently discovered that a variety of
other ball materials also work well in the Cyclotronic design - as well as
reduce banjo weight.
Nechville's series of light weight
prototypes feature "Open Architecture" construction. Special tone rings, "tone
spheres" and new rims of various materials combine in infinite potentials for
the discerning ear. Nechville has also pioneered Hybrid banjos that incorporate
traditional pots with Nechville's famous adjustable necks.
Anyone interested in the best choice for
a tried and tested contemporary banjo can visit our
dealers
for a standard or custom Nechville creation. The Banjo Revolution research
process is far too complex to be carried out in the traditional way through
music stores. Therefore, Open Architecture designs and Hybrid banjos are only
offered through
Banjorev.com.
