Got this for a steal on - re-selling because I have too many banjos!

Victor \"Specialty\" model by George. C Dobson - patented 1884

-amazing condition

-new calf skin head

-excellent original inlays

-ornate rim binding

-original/perfectly function tuners. Very smooth

No issues or concerns, but will need slight setup (new bridge and strings). As-is, she plays, but sounds pretty lousy. I know this would be an incredible sounding banjo with a little love. Although I\'m not a luthier, the neck seems straight, the action is decent but the current bridge/string is a bust (that bridge is cracked too).

The previous owner \"restored\" the banjo and left these notes:

SCALE 25\",

ACTION 5/32\" AT THE 12TH FRET, BRIDGE 5/16\".

NEW TAILPIECE HANGER BOLT, FILLER ON NECK BY THE MALTESE CROSS INLAY.

MINOR DINGS AND NICKS. ALL HARDWARE MATCHES, MANY HOOK AND NUTS BRASS SHOWING. NICE SET OF TUNING PEGS.

Selling cheap for a quick sale!
