    Description

    Up for sale is a decent looking and in good condition 4 string Old Craftsman banjo. I purchased it at the may Brimfield Show well because I thought it to be in good condition and looked fairly well made and attractive. I tried to price it reasonable but didn't have much luck finding a match to compare it to. The neck is solid and I don't play but just  stroking the strings a bit it sounds okay. It will need a bit of cleaning and tightening here and of course tuning. All the ring hardware is present but as pictured some are loose and as mentioned I see no real problems. I will edit anything I learn including any history from the company and anything to compare it to. I took lots of pictures to try to show it off a bit and hopefully answer a question or two. It measures about 34" long and the body is about 13" wide.  But no ebay extortion games which ebay encourages through ridiculous feedback policy. Don't like it or damaged send it back or lets do a claim, no I don't want to send it back, don't want to do a claim but give me a discount or I leave neg FB games. Go find somebody else if that is your thing. Shipping antiques is still a game of chance even though I do my absolute best in packing and try to use double boxing and oversized for my cushioning. Mishandling still happens everything goes insured please if something does get mishandled let's all be mature about it, and make it correct and fair for all. Thanks for taking a look!!!
