My deam banjo for custom build

I just got back from Clift top and saw some super banjos for sale from many luthiers. 

However none of the banjos made me pull the trigger and buy one.   So I decided to make a list of what I want in a banjo I get custom built for claw hammer /old time play.  I realize what I want may not make a good banjo.  So I am asking the group to critique my list.

  1. A scale

  2. 12” maple ply rim. Dobson tone ring

  3. Walnut neck

  4. Fretless or flush fret to the 5th fret .frailing scoup

  5. Renn head

So please give me the pros and cons .

thanks
