Description

This is a fantastic one piece flange style 1 conversion with a CM178 tone ring and we believe a Frank Neat neck.  This is in excellent shape and all original other than the conversion parts.

This has a maple resonator with nickel hardware.  The neck is also maple with a rosewood fretboard.  The fretboard has flying seagull inlay.  There is white binding on each side of the neck and resonator.  The flange is flat.  This is one of the best sounding style 1 banjos that I have ever heard, period.  This banjo is exceptional and all original other than the conversion neck and tone ring.  The banjo comes in a tan Superior hardshell case.

Condition

The banjo is in truly incredible shape.  The finish is clean and really looks great.  The neck is straight and the banjo has been set up here at the Banjo Warehouse.  The fretboard is clean with clean frets all the way down the board.  This is definitely a well taken care of instrument.  The banjo plays fast and I want to emphasize that this is one of the best sounding style 1 banjos that I have ever seen!!!  The banjo has spikes at the 7th, 9th and 10th frets.  The Superior case is also clean and basically brand new.

Set Up

This has been set up here at the Banjo Warehouse.  The action feels great and produces great tone and volume.  The banjo has proper intonation.  The head is set to 90 on a drum dial all the way around the head.  This has a frosted Deering Head and a Huber bridge with an ebony cap.  This also has new Huber Truetone .10 gauge strings.  This is an exceptional banjo that is set up to sound and play like a dream!!
