This instrument is a B-Stock that ins fully functional and has no structural defects. The only issue is that there is a small ding/slight finish hazing on the head plate.
The newest addition to their series of tributes to the great banjos made before the Second World War continues with this, the most beautiful edition offered yet. The Gold Tone OB-Grandee (the Old West moniker for a Spanish nobleman) pays homage to one of the Holy Grail banjos of yore, resplendent in its engraved and gold-plated glory. This professional-grade banjo hits all of the right notes with the curly maple neck and resonator, premium hardware, bridge and tuning machines unite to bring you that pre-war essence without the wallet-busting price.
We inspect each and every instrument we ship out for maximum playability. We adjust the action and adjust intonation when needed. If you would like a specific adjustment, just add it to your order notes and we would be happy to adjust to your liking.
