    Description

    Vintage 5 string Banjo. Home Made Circa 1900. Now Just A Folk Art Hanger.. Condition is used as you might well imagine. Where it might well have played “Orange Blossom Special” alas, it is a wall hanger making just a wonderful folky statement.
    Like many of the banjos made at the time ( particularly in the South ), the rim was store bought while the rest was fashioned by hand. Frets were etched into the neck probably with a pocket knife.
    This banjo is 34 1/2” tall and the pot is about 11” in diameter. This seems to be made of poplar or pine.
    Anyway just buy it. It will change your life.
