    • Banjo toolkitBanjo toolkits! Each toolkit includes a cast bronze 5/16" custom banjo wrench, a cast bronze 3/8" nut driver wrench, and an allen key for truss rod adjustments. If ordered at the same time we're making your banjo, the handle of the nut driver will be made from the same wood as your instrument. These three tools are all you need to take apart, adjust, and maintain your Romero banjo. And each toolkit comes in a hand crafted kitbag. Sold with or without banjos - $40.

    • We've been looking for the perfect strap for years - and these really are the best! They're simple, high quality, and have everything you need in a banjo strap and nothing you don't need. Made by the folks at Buck's County Music. Sold with or without banjos - $35.

    • Cast bronze J-shoes: The newest addition to our ever-expanding line of L-shoes is inspired by early Boucher and other minstrel era makers. These shoes are inset in the rim, wrapping around the bottom with no drill holes or screws. We are very excited about this new blend of old styles and innovation! More of these J-shoes are in the works....

    • cast bronze tuner buttonCast bronze banjo wrench! Available as part of a banjo toolkit or on its own.
      We’re incredibly excited about this cast bronze banjo wrench. It’s been on our to-do list of custom hardware for quite a while now, and we finally got around to designing it. Inspired by the custom banjo wrenches from turn-of-the-century companies, we wanted to offer a company-designed and built wrench. This new wrench fits on all 5/16″ hex nuts. It also fits on the machine screws that we use to attach our L-shoes. $25.

"Jason Romero is making banjos that are at the absolute peak of the art form in terms of sound, design, feel, woodwork, inlay, etc. He unites tradition with innovation in an effortless way, creating masterful works of art with each instrument. He is at the forefront of his field, making some of the most exciting and rewarding banjos in America today. If you're looking for "that sound," this is it."
- Dirk Powell

Jason, Love my "big boy" banjo. He rocks! I used it on my latest CD "Instrumentals." Sure love the way it sounds, and it's so well made. You really put your heart and soul in these banjos. You do yourself proud...
All the best,
- Ricky Skaggs
