Custom banjo with pre war Gibson 40-hole archtop tone ring

Custom banjo with pre war Gibson 40-hole archtop tone ring

Maple neck and resonator; wreath inlay. Although this banjo was evidently made about fifteen years ago, it is in nearly like new condition, with only a tiny hint of fret wear. It is a really nice sounding arch top.  Click here for pictures

2003 Desert Rose BG-75

Custom banjo with pre war Gibson 40-hole archtop tone ring

Custom banjo with pre war Gibson 40-hole archtop tone ring

Mahogany, with a Tony Pass Lost Timber rim. We sold this new and the owner evidently rarely played it, so it remains in virtually unplayed condition with just a hint of wear on the first two frets. Scott Zimmerman is one of finest builders in the world; unfortunately he evidently isn't currently making banjos, so they are few and far between. Click here for pictures

2001 Fender Prototype Concert Tone

Custom banjo with pre war Gibson 40-hole archtop tone ring

2001 Fender Prototype Concert Tone

This one-of-a-kind banjo was built as the result of an agreement between Fender and Scott Zimmerman for a possible Fender re-entry into the professional banjo market. The wood is American walnut with a beautiful burl resonator. JLS #4 tone ring and 3-ply rim. The label is signed and dated by Scott, and there is a letter from him verifying the above. It is in virtually new condition, with not even a trace of fret wear!  Click here for pictures

1970s Gibson RB-250

2005 Gold Star GF-100W

2001 Fender Prototype Concert Tone

Decent overall condition with practically no fret wear. There is some green vertigris on the metal parts which could be cleaned. The tube has a couple of breaks, which are harmless because it is stable as is. If you are looking for an RB-250 at a great price, look no further. No case. Click here for pictures

2005 Gold Star GF-100W

2005 Gold Star GF-100W

Nechville 30th Anniversary

Mullins Bluegrass Special with tunneled 5th string

Mullins Bluegrass Special with tunneled 5th string

 Nechville 30th Anniversary banjo. Nechville only made 30 of these banjos. We purchased 7 of them, and they are all sold. We sold this one, and our customer can’t play any longer so we bought it back. It is in like new condition. Maple with a stunning gray finish; amber tuner buttons and EVO frets. This is a wonderful sounding banjo!  Click here for pictures 

Nechville Phantom with Gibson tone ring

Mullins Bluegrass Special with tunneled 5th string

Nechville Phantom with Gibson tone ring

 This was a custom order, built with a prewar Gibson 40-hole archtop tone ring. Maple wood, with cocobolo binding. It obviously was played very little; other than light wear on the first few frets, it is in practically new condition. This is a powerful and great sounding banjo, with looks to match!
