Description

This particular instrument is in very good condition with a big sound. It has a bound Mahogany neck, Rosewood finger board with MOP “hearts & flowers” inlay, fitted with Keith pattern D tuners planetary tuners, bound resonator, chromed hardware, Remo head, new maple and ebony 3 footed bridge fitted, Waverley style tailpiece and a Shubb long scale sliding capo. 

This banjo has had a full Eaglemusic stripdown and rebuild with new parts fitted including Remo frosted top head, bridge and strings.

Note There has been a neck repair done on this banjo at the top of the neck well over 20 years ago but is hardly noticeable and has no bearing on the playability or tone of the banjo. See images.

Supplied in a hard case.
