Old, vintage & rare Gretsch 5 string banjo; about 100 yrs. old. Maple hoop/pot & neck with a tone hoop.
It’s upgraded with Gotoh aged nickel planetary geared tuners.
It also has a Waverly adjustable tailpiece on it, putting more pressure on the bridge & getting a lot of tone & volume out of the Fiberskyn head.
It’s got a raw brass wire armrest.
Old quality brass parts galore; the tension hoop, brackets, even the bracket hex nuts
New 11 in. Fiberskyn head, bridge & strings.
It has shoe brackets & nice barrel nuts.
The banjo is about 35.5 in. long. It has a 26” scale.
It’s got Great tone & playability.
Sorry, no case.
This is a really great old openback banjo; ready to play. Don’t underestimate it. Folks in my Old Time jam are really amazed by this 100 yr. old maple banjo.
Thanks for looking.
