"Tone Pins" give clarity to the banjo with a variety of powerful vibe tones.
Optional on the Blue Ridge Models only. This technique consists of pre-loading tone-pins (under pressure) against the tension hoop.
Tone-pins of bone, ebony, curly maple, ivory, lead, brass, copper, high carbon steel plus a few others are available.
Sustained & decaying vibe tones can be produced.

Tone pins add mass to the tailpiece but also the softer materials like bone, ivory or ebony gives a bright but yet a quicker decaying sound.
Working on up through lead and brass (more mellow) Copper (little brighter) and High carbon steel (brighter).
Tone pins are fun & easy to work with. With tone pins removed you will get a little more sustained sound.

"Tone Locks" are "optional" and used on tone pins only
Tone Locks give that little added ingredient it takes sometimes to get that superb tone we are all looking for.
When tightened they give a little more bite or deliver a deeper tone that sounds so great.
They can also be kept loose on the tone pin for a quicker decaying vibe tone.

"Kicker Pins" are short for tweaking the banjo with a variety of different densities
These can be added to help achieve the tone your looking for.
Kicker pins add a verity of different vibe tones to the banjo by adding mass to the tailpiece of different densities.
Kicker Pins are shorter and quite different than Tone Pins in that they are all metal and do not touch the tension hoop.
Either Kicker Pins & Tone Pins can be used to mix-n-match for tweaking your banjo
to it’s highest level you desire in getting a deeper, sharper, sustain or decaying tones.
