Description

This is a copy of the banjo that was played for years by Earl Scruggs. This is a Granada with the gold worn off, plus an ebony fretboard with a Hearts and Flowers inlay pattern. This is absolutely the most popular and best selling Gibson Banjo model.

This has a flamed maple resonator on a 3 ply hard rock maple shell. The hardware is nickel. The neck is also flamed maple with an ebony fretboard. The fretboard has a Hearts and Flowers inlay pattern with an extra inlay at the first fret. There is w/b/w binding on each side of the neck and resonator (white with black pinstripe). This has a Kulesh Tone ring. The banjo is all original with the exception of added Keith D Tuners. This comes with an original one piece armrest and Presto Tailpiece. The Keith tuners are definitely an upgrade and those are $250 new. The banjo also has an original Gibson Hardshell Case that still has the original blue Gibson Warranty Paper.

This is a fantastic example of a Scruggs Standard and the mid 1990’s were an exceptional period for Gibson Banjos.

Condition

This is very clean. The wood and finish look fantastic. The hardware basically looks new. The neck and fretboard are both clean with clean frets. The frets are in fantastic condition. This banjo has never had a 5th string tuner or spikes installed. This is evidence of it not being seriously played because any serious banjo player would need a 5th string capo or spikes. The only blemish on this is some extremely minor splitting in the fretboard near the end of the neck, by the pot. There is a picture of this. Most People would not mention this. This effects nothing but it is there. It effects nothing. This is clean all the way around and up and down with a clean original case. Even the original warranty paperwork is clean.

Set Up

This has been professionally set up here at the Banjo Warehouse. This has the original Remo frosted head that is in fantastic condition. The head has been set to 90 on a drum dial. This has a Dotson Bridge with an ebony cap. There are new Huber Truetone .10 gauge strings. This has comfortable action that produces great tone and volume. The banjo also has correct intonation. Everything is fully adjustable with the truss rod and 2 coordinator rods. This is a fantastic all original and clean example of the most popular Gibson Banjo with a clean original case. Any player and I do mean any player would love this one.
