The world's first true mini 5 string banjo has remarkable tone and playability due to a totally unique design. The neck is exactly the same scale as playing with a capo in A (2nd fret) so it feels comfortable. At only 2 1/2 lbs., and 31'' it is a delight for traveling, practicing, and of course for kids. The arm rest on this has some slight oxidization from playing as does the flange. But it is minor and besides that it looks unplayed. Comes with OG softshell case.
