2 reviews for DR. ARM Banjo Original – Mahogany

  1. BENNETT SULLIVAN –

    “Dr. Arm has made playing banjo way more enjoyable for me. Being a professional musician that spends most of my time playing, I needed an armrest solution that would keep my hand in the correct position, not cause pain after hours of playing, and give me enhanced mobility when changing arm positions. Dr. Arm was that solution and I’m incredibly happy with it’s results. Highly recommended.”

  2. Ted Haeger –

    I started having an itchy reaction to the factory armrest that came with my Deering Eagle II banjo. Mine arrived today and it installed just as the video shows, super easily. I have only played a few minutes so far, but it is comfortable and looks great. Now I need to get one for my Artisan Goodtime banjo.
    Thanks, Banjolit!

After all these years of playing banjo, I didn’t see a need to change armrests, but after I tried Dr. Arm armrest from Banjolit, I knew I wanted one on all of my instruments. I can’t believe how much I love this armrest. Now, the traditional metal armrests feel sticky and cumbersome.

Kristin Scott Benson

I love the Dr. Arm banjo armrest because of how comfortable it feels. Playing the banjo is all about feel, especially when you are performing in different settings. You have to set up the instrument so that everything feels tension-free to play your best. The angle and finish of the Dr. Arm are definitely an improvement on a traditional armrest, which can put stress on your forearm. I dig how these armrests look, but I’m even more into the way they make the instrument feel when I play.

This Banjolit armrest keeps me looking sharp. It stops me from wearing a hole in both my mandolin and my jackets. In addition, it keeps my arm off the body and hand off the bridge adding volume and resonance to my playing. It’s so comfortable that I often forget it’s there until someone points out how nice it looks.

"I received the Dr. Arm maple wood armrest today and I wanted to thank you for it, the armrest is beautiful. I purchased my first armrest from your shop last year and I liked it so much that I purchased another for my second Whitestar.  You make a very beautiful product and I greatly admire your craftsmanship.

“As a professional mandolin player for a few years now I have tried nearly every brand and shape of armrest available. I’m so happy to say that finally the search is over! The Dr. Arm Mandolin Armrest from Banjolit is the best one available. Besides providing unparalleled comfort, the higher profile gives perfect wrist placement for a relaxed right hand.”

“I went ahead and installed the armrest, and WOW!  While I initially thought it was too light, now I find that the light portion of the armrest beautifully accents the engraving on the headstock, while the darkest parts do nearly match the brown pot and neck.  The comfort level is amazing.  I am very pleased.  I have included a photo of the mounted armrest. Best Wishes.”

“The mahagony mandolin armrest arrived Saturday and again I'm very happy: looks amazing and matches the pumpkintop of my old Gibson very nicely. I will take pics next weekend and send them to you. Thanks for the extra barrel!”

“This is my brand new Deering Eagle II with Maple Black custom armrest. I also have a Maple custom armrest on my longneck banjo. I cannot go back to another type of armrest. I don't feel it when playing. It is just there doing what it is supposed to do. Banjo greetings.”
