Clean, great condition vintage made in Japan banjo with newly installed modern geared tuners. This banjo has been upgraded from a single coordinator rod to a dual rod system for improved adjustment and sustain. Newly installed 5-Star mylar head. The brass tailpiece, bone nut, maple/ebony bridge, and armrest makes this banjo play and sound great!
