Richard
Kulesh, Sr. started manufacturing banjo tone tings in 1987 for Gibson Musical Instruments under
the name of the then family business “Anti-Friction Products, Inc.” In
1991, AFP became “Extraordinary Music Components” when AFP closed.
 From
1991 on, Richard Sr. focused on innovative new directions to take banjo
tone ring development.
In 1993, the legendary Kulesh 10-hole,
centrifugally spun tone ring was developed, and was met with very open
arms by the bluegrass banjo world.
Tragically,
Richard Sr. passed away in a motorcycle accident while riding in
Rosarito, Mexico (about 60 miles South of San Diego, CA) on February
18th, 1996.
Richard Kulesh, Jr. continued in the tradition of
making high quality banjo components for the banjo world. His
additions have included the Powerful Big-10 centrifugally spun tone
ring, the archtop to flathead conversion ring the Retrotone tone ring
and the Vintage-20 tone rings, to name a few.
 Rick still continues in his
father's footsteps to this day with Kulesh Musical Components.
