The bracket hook lugs provide a secure anchor
for the bracket hooks.
To install the bracket hook lugs:
1. Slide the M4-.7 X 16 Phillip head screws with
4mm lock washers through the holes on the
centerline of the wooden rim and thread the
bracket hook lugs onto the screws as shown
in Figure 4.
2. Rotate the bracket hook lugs until the holes
face up and tighten the screws.
3. Attach the strap hook with the remaining
screw and lock washer into the hole that is
off center.
The tone ring transmits vibration from the banjo
head into the rim. It is essential to shaping the
sound of the instrument.
To install the tone ring:
1. Use a razor blade to scrape excess finish out
of the groove in the wooden rim.
2. Test the fit of the ring. It should fit snug onto
the wooden rim.
3. Install the tone ring with the flat side down as
shown in Figure 5.
