These are the stunning creations by the 'gamekeeper-turned banjo maker' who has made an instrument for comedian Billy Connolly. Euan Cattanach, 78, has been making banjos, mandolins, resonators and guitars for more than 20 years and recently made one especially for comic Billy Connolly. Born in Peebles, Scottish Borders but now living in Aberfeldy, Perthshire, Euan started making string instruments from a life-long interest in woodwork. He lives with wife Irene, 75, and owns his own banjo making and repair business, Chattan Luthiery.
