Used 5-String Open-Back Banjos
Maker: Vega
Year: 1914
Notes:
An interesting and plain version of Vega's famous Whyte Laydie #2 banjo.
Stamped "Fairbanks Banjo by The Vega Co".
All original banjo except for the older set of planetary geared pegs.
Good neck, a little playing wear in the first position, with the odd ding and scratch
typical of a well-treated but well-played 110 year-old instrument.
Hard Case.
I love playing this banjo!
