Stelling Staghorn Alan Munde Model

This is a rare and collectible 1996 Stelling Alan Munde Model Staghorn, one of only 10 ever made — and this is the final one in the run (#10 of 10). Built by Geoff Stelling during the mid-’90s, this model honors legendary banjoist Alan Munde, whose signature appears beautifully inlaid at the 17th fret. One Owner!

Excellent to near mint. There are no noticeable scratches, dings, or finish issues. It has been carefully maintained and sparingly played in a smoke-free environment.

This banjo delivers the unmistakable Stelling sound — powerful, clear, loud, and well-balanced across all strings. It’s one of the best-sounding Stellings I’ve owned or played, and a fine example of the company’s craftsmanship during this era.
