Description
This has a clean maple resonator with nickel hardware. The neck is also maple with a rosewood fretboard. The fretboard has a Seagull inlay pattern. There is white binding on each side of the neck and resonator. This has a one piece armrest and a Grover Patent tailpiece. All original. The banjo has a Huber HR30 tone ring and we believe a Frank Neat neck.
This happens to be an exceptionally clean example with a nearly perfectly flat flange and super clean original finish. This has been authenticated by both Steve Huber and Geoff Hohwald but there is no serial number visible. There is however scratching where the serial number would have been which probably means at some point somebody removed the serial number. Whatever the case may be this is absolutely an original one piece flange one with a flat original flange and a clean original resonator and some of the best conversion parts you can buy.
Condition
Like I said this is in fantastic condition. The hardware shows some light age but not much. I can clean that off but we prefer leaving the wear on the pre war hardware. The finish on the resonator is not only original but it is super clean. The neck and fretboard are also both clean with clean frets. The frets show only a hint of wear on only the first few frets. There are spikes at the 7th-9th frets. This is a gorgeous banjo with a clean hardshell case.
Set Up
This was set up here at the Banjo Warehouse. This has a new Huber frosted head by Remo with a new Huber Bridge and new Huber Truetone .10 gauge strings. The head is set to 90 on a drum dial. The banjo has nice string height (action) which is adjustable with correct intonation. This is not only a clean banjo this has been set up to play and sound incredible.
