About Us
Nechville Banjos East is located at the Turtle Hill Banjo Company in beautiful Annapolis, Maryland. We specialize in the sales, service, and setup of Nechville Banjos. We are a resource for accessories and lessons, and we embrace our strong musical community.
Tom Nechville (Sisters, Oregon) is the creator of the unique Nechville Helimount system, a radical reinvention of banjo design and technology.
Replacing more than seventy parts of a traditional banjo, the Helimount body tightens the head with a simple 2 part mechanism. It is similar to twisting a jar into is lid; greatly reducing the setup time and improving the banjo's sound for a more enjoyable playing experience.
Banjo players who have embraced Nechville’s cutting-edge designs include Steve Martin, Bela Fleck, Noam Pikelny, Alison Brown, Tim Carter, Emily Robison (Dixie Chicks), Enda Scahill (We Banjo 3), Claudio Parravacini (Milan Italy), and Billy Failing (Billy Strings).
