Sterling BJ535 5-String Banjo (USED)
Our Notes: This funky old banjo is overall in Good condition. We can't say with absolute certainty, but we estimate this banjo was made in the 1960s. We did some work to fix it up to proper playing condition. Some of the neck binding was cracked and loose so we glued it back in place. We thoroughly cleaned the entire instrument. Replaced the high-g string tuner. Performed a restring. Someone clearly played this banjo a lot because the head has a large worn area. Instead of replacing the head we left it on because it gives the banjo a certain authentic charm.
