Description

A super cool A -scale banjo! Tuned up a full step, this banjo has an awesome tone and with the shorter scale length, which is an absolute blast to play! The banjo’s neck heel has an old repair. We heat pressed the neck, put new strings on and did some set up work to it and moved the dowel location at the tailpiece. The friction tuners all work. 5th string peg is non original. The main ones are some form of Bakelite and hold really well. The rim is rosewood and is clad in chromed metal, which also serves as a tone ring. There is a small hole in the back of the neck by the headstock. We think someone had an eyelet screw there to secure a strap. This really awesome banjo is in very good+ condition and comes with a hard case.
