Goat or calf for minstrel banjos. Mountain banjos were homemade and had
smaller heads so you used what was handy, groundhog, cat, whatever.

They are three pieces of wood with the head sandwiched between them and
were usually fretless. It is easier than bending a rim and doesn't need
all the hardware. Supposedly catgut strings were made from cattle but in
eastern Kentucky you can never tell.
