Description
This is an absolutely beautiful Scruggs Standard. The Scruggs Standard is a copy of the Granada that was played by Earl Scruggs. The gold had worn down to nickel on his banjo so this has nickel hardware and the fretboard is ebony with a Hearts and Flowers inlay. This is because Earl Scruggs Banjo was set up like that.
This has a curly maple resonator with nickel hardware. The shell is a 3 ply hard rock maple shell. The neck is also curly maple and this has an ebony fretboard. The fretboard has a Hearts and Flowers inlay pattern with an extra inlay at the first fret. This is all original and has a Mystery Gibson Tone Ring. The ring is original but we do not know who made it specifically. This has a one piece armrest and a Gibson Presto Tailpiece. There is w/b/w binding on each side of the neck and resonator (white with black pinstripe). The tuners are original and there is also inlay work on the headstock including the Gibson logo. The banjo is all original and includes an original Gibson Hardshell Case.
Condition
This banjo is clean!!! The finish and wood look great with almost no sign of wear. I wouldn’t say it is mint but this is definitely in excellent plus condition. The hardware is clean and is glowing. The neck and fretboard are both clean with clean frets. There is a hint of wear on the first few frets but we are talking minor. There are spikes at the 7th and 9th frets. This is absolutely gorgeous and is a fantastic example of a Scruggs Standard. The case is in good shape but one of the hinges is broken so the top is not perfectly attached when open. When the case is closed it makes no difference and most people wouldn’t care. I do have other Gibson cases if that is a problem.
Set Up
This has been professionally set up here at the Banjo Warehouse. This has a new Huber frosted head by Remo that is set to 90 on a drum dial. The banjo has new Huber Truetone .10 gauge strings. The bridge is a Gary Sosebee bridge with a rosewood cap. The neck is straight and this is set up with great action which produces a lot of tone and volume. The banjo is fully adjustable. This also has correct intonation.
The Scruggs Standard is absolutely the most popular model of Gibson Banjo. This has all of the sound that a true Scruggs fan will be looking for. If you want the Scruggs Sound and want a clean example of one this banjo is for you!!!
