The banjo is in excellent condition. The frets have virtually no wear and the ebony fretboard is in great shape with no pitting. The headstock has an inlaid Mother of Pearl Fox that compliments the artistic inlays on the fingerboard. Since Geoff Stelling retired a few years ago, Stelling Banjos are becoming increasingly hard to find in this type of condition.
We generally carry a wide range of Stelling banjos, from the Staghorn and Golden Cross models to the Red Fox, Sunflower, Whitestar, and others.
Stelling banjos are known for their exquisite quality and bright sound. Stelling banjos have been played by many top players, including Alan Munde, Don Reno, Eddie Adcock, Alison Brown, and Tony Trischka.
Remember that we nearly always have Stelling banjos in stock that have yet to be added to our website listings.
This banjo will be set up and fine-tuned by the staff at The Banjo Warehouse in Yellow Springs, Ohio before it is shipped out.

Geoff Hohwald has been playing banjo since the 1960’s. He became active in the thriving bluegrass community in Ohio as a teenager while studying at Ohio State University. He has played professionally as a guitarist and banjo player with several bluegrass bands ever since. Geoff moved to Atlanta after college and co-founded the Watch and Learn publishing company. They now publish a full line of musical instrument instruction books and digital modules. He also owned several music stores in Atlanta from the 1980s through the mid-2000s and is still an active participant in the musical instrument re-sale community in the southeast.
Banjo Warehouse is a family business resulting from 50 years of experience in music and 40 years of experience in musical instrument retail sales and education. Our focus is on the 5-string flathead banjo, but we also occasionally have a good selection of guitars and mandolins (and other folk instruments).

This variant of the venerable CC-100R features a generous nut width of 1 and 5/16" (1/8" wider than that of standard Cripple Creek models).
