The Fender Artist banjo was the top of the line model when introduced. 

I purchased this instrument from the original owner who is a professional level player. Unfortunately I was never able to play it very well and it has spent much of the 10 years in the closet in a temperature controlled environment. Instruments are meant to be played so I've decided to pass it on to someone who will appreciate it and give it a good home. 

Overall, the instrument is in very good overall condition and a nice player. Please note that the former owner informed me that it did have a neck repair at one point and I've tried to show that in the photos. The repair work was performed by a well known luthier in New York state and as shown in the pictures, barely noticeable. The original case is included in the sale. 

This is a no risk deal. if you are unsatisfied for any reason, you may request a full refund. The item will be securely packed and shipped fully insured via UPS Ground. 

Please let me know if you have any questions or would like additional photos.
