Metal Plating
The metal parts on any Huber banjo can be plated in either Nickel, Gold or Chrome. These parts include: tone ring, flange, tension hoop, coordinator rods, armrest, tailpiece, hooks and nuts, and resonator hardware.
The antique metal finish is a sort of “instant aging process” that allows a new custom Huber to capture some of the patina of a vintage banjo. The outer surfaces of the metal parts are modified to remove the sheen, giving a very close approximation of the look of a much older instrument.
