The 11.5" diameter rim assembly features white holly construction, internal resonator rim tonering design, with gorgeous marquetry trimming the rim inside and out; a dozen f hole cutouts present on the back of resonator; equipped with Cam style No Knot. The 28" scale neck boasts a large flared heel, with long/detailed heel carving and bound fingerboard; 1-5/16" nut width; equipped with original gold plated friction tuners with pearl buttons. Some light wear on back of neck/on peghead, and some tarnish on metal parts, but a seriously fine banjo in fine condition.
