At 1:31am on March 25, 2011, MichaelS Country Boy Guitars said…: Michael, hi. Yes I do sell my stuff on etsy. My wife runs the shop though and it is a full time thing, they don't seem to sell if you just list and wait. She puts in a lot of time on it, me I just build my guitars. : )

As for the calfskin head on my tackhead banjo, I got it from Stew-Mac. At $25, The most expensive part of the banjo by far. I may have to learn how to skin my own calves.
