    Description

    The original plastic heads
    Epoxy-mounted Mylar with white top-frosted surface for a bright, crisp tone
    Plastic heads resist stretching and shrinking due to humidity, a problem common to skin heads, and give the instrument a brighter, crisper tone
    High crown (1/2") head, with 10-3/4" diameter
    The original plastic banjo heads, from Weatherking. Features epoxy-mounted Mylar® with white top-frosted surface for a bright, crisp tone.
    Plastic heads resist stretching and shrinking due to humidity, a problem common to skin heads, and give the instrument a brighter, crisper tone.
    Measure your banjo for the correct head diameter:
    Take at least three diameter measurements at different points on the outside of the banjo's tone ring or rim top.
    Use the average diameter to the nearest 1/16" to order the correct size.
    Choose the correct crown height:
    Crown height is the vertical distance from the top of the head's mounting band to the top surface of the head.
    A banjo with a flathead tone ring (or a flat-topped banjo) requires a medium or high crown head. A banjo with an archtop tone ring requires a low crown head.
    The correct crown height prevents the banjo's tension hoop from pulling down too far, and ensures the hoop won't be so high as to impede the strings.
