Aria Pro II Banjo 1970s

Description

Hello, I have up for sale here an Aria Pro II banjo.  It is a 5-string bluegrass style banjo that was made in Japan in the 1970s.  This is a very nice playing and sounding banjo, the neck is straight and it plays very well.  It could probably use a change of strings and cleaned up a bit since I have not played it in a few years.
The banjo is not in mint condition, but for its age, I would say that it is in very good shape.  It is a very nice playing banjo and it has a very professional sound.  Out of five banjos that I owned, this is the last one and was my favorite playing and sounding banjo.  It has a very nice mellow sort of tone, not harsh, and it has plenty of volume.   It is a very comfortable banjo to play, and the mellow tone is addictive and it is hard to put the banjo down.
I would prefer to sell the banjo as-is with no returns only because I really don't like the idea of  shipping the banjo back and forth across the country as old and fragile as it is.  Please if you are interested, ask any questions before you buy,  and I will be glad to answer.  I also am up for offers, make me an offer if you are interested and I just may take you up on the offer.
This would make a fine banjo for a beginner, intermediate or a professional player.  This is a professional quality banjo.  It isn't a Gibson, but it is very nice and I believe if you are a banjo player you will be very happy with this banjo.
The banjo comes with the case pictured in the photos. I would prefer to ship to 48 Continental U.S. only.  Thank you!
