Description

BE SURE TO CHECK OUT MY OTHER AUCTIONS FOR MORE NICE OLD ESTATE FRESH BANJOS. LET ME START BY STATING THAT MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS ARE NOT MY AREA OF EXPERTISE, SO FEEL FREE TO ASK QUESTIONS, I WILL TRY MY BEST. OFFERED HERE IS THIS NICE OLD SLINGERLAND MINI BANJO. IT MESURES APPROX. 20" LONG OVERALL AND 7" ACROSS. IT IS A 4 STRING WITH 17 FRETS. BEAUTIFUL BIRDS EYE MAPLE WITH BOTH A SLINGERLAND AND FRIEDMAN'S LABEL TO THE BACK. I DID NOT FIND ANY NUMBERS OR DATES ON IT ANYWHERE. THE HEAD IN COVERED IN WRITING, I BELIEVE TO BE FRATERNAL OR FRAT HOUSE IN NATURE. AND NJ BASED, THERE ARE 2 DATES WRITTEN ON IT, 1923 & 1924. IT IS MISSING ONE STRING AND THE HEAD IS CRACKED / TORN. EVERYTHING SEEMS TIGHT, PRESENT AND INTACT. A REALLY NICE LITTLE BANJO HERE. ALL OF MY ITEMS ARE OFFERED WITH A NO QUESTIONS ASKED RETURN PRIVILEGE. I DO COMBINE S&H ON MULTIPLE ITEM WINS WHEN PRACTICAL.
