“The treasure to the Warehouse is Geoff Hohwald, himself. He knows so much about banjos: how they are made; what makes them sound good; and how to learn to play. His many years of experience translates to an expert willing to help even the beginner master this most unique of instruments.”

“I have purchased two banjos from Geoff — a Greg Rich era RB-3 and a ’65 RB-800. Both are great banjos. I’ve also sold Geoff a Stelling Staghorn. He is great to deal with, very honest. Everything was as expected and as promised. 10 Stars.”

A Family-Run Banjo Shop Since 1980

Banjo Warehouse is run by Geoff Hohwald, who has been playing and selling banjos since 1963. He’s also the author of The Banjo Primer (200,000+ copies sold). Banjos shipped from our shop are set up by our banjo tech Tara, who trained at the Huber Banjo factory. We’re a small team that knows banjos, not a warehouse full of boxes.
