Awesome Coconut Banjo!

Wow, this is an amazing and very creative piece from Ranjit Bhatnagar. He was so inspired when he saw 99-cent coconut at the market that he bought it and created this amazing one-string coconut banjo!

In words of Ranjit:

The frets are bamboo skewers – I tuned them by ear so the tuning is kind of shaky. I might add more frets later. Note how the bamboo bridge rests on a point on the membrane (architectural vellum)- this helps to transfer the vibrations of the string.
