For Sale: Wildwood Artist Banjo (late 70's) - $1,350 USD
This is a late 1970's or early 1980's Wildwood banjo. I am the original owner. At the time, I believe this was called the Artist model and was their top of the line banjo. I was influenced by Wildwood's Art Rosenbaum endorsement in a Sing Out magazine ad. Solid maple construction with a tubaphone tone ring. It has beautiful Paramount style inlays. The banjo is in great shape with some wear marks from over 30 years of playing including one trip to New Zealand. There is some finish distortion on the back of the neck under the 2nd and 14th frets. The heel cap shows wear with a small chip in the point. RR spikes at frets 7, 9, and 10. I replaced all the hooks a few years ago. It has a Remo Weather King head. I used a pre-mounted skin head for many years, but it developed a tear and was replaced. I preferred the sound with a skin head. Includes used TKL gig bag. Shipping will be determined by location - actual costs only.

For Sale: Huber: Jim Mills - $3,375 USD
Built by Steve Huber as a replicate of Jim Mills famous Gibson prewar s/n F 453-2 gold and engraved Mack Crowe banjo as shown and described in Jim's recent Gibson Mastertone book starting on page 76. Great sounding and playing banjo with a slightly "V" shaped "speed" neck. Has gold Keith D-tuners on 2nd and 3rd strings. Notice the full "double-cut" peghead-not like some of the later Huber rounded double-cut pegheads following Gibson's "cease and desist" order. TKL hard case included. Leather strap included. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
For full disclosure, there is a scratch on the outside wall of the resonator at about the 10 o'clock position. I've included a pic even though the pic looks much worse than it actually is. Other than that, the banjo is in very good condition.

For Sale: //SOLD// The Huber "Carnegie Hall" Banjo - $4,750 USD
Here's a chance to own a collector's item for sure. This banjo was commissioned by non other than Joe Spann during his employment at Huber banjos. The banjo was to replicate Earl Scruggs' banjo configuration during the famous live recording of Flatt and Scruggs at Carnegie Hall.
The banjo features the Huber "Truetone" package with a gold plated HR-30 tone ring and Huber Engineered Rim. This banjo has a mahogany neck and curly maple resonator as did Earl's banjo, but with added concentric rings that are beautiful. The nickel hardware has the "vintage" finish. The banjo also features original Keith/Bump D-tuners and genuine prewar Grover pancake tuners as well. Every detail was carefully matched from the thin peghead overlay to having the famous serial number "9584-3" stamped in the rim. This is the only one in existence and is a VERY "Earl sounding" banjo to say the least. I don't have to sell this banjo but simply have too many others that are not getting played either. This one needs to be out there getting played. 5th string spikes are installed and ships in a brown Superior case.
Don't hesitate to call or text if you have questions or want to see more pictures. 615-683-5840

For Sale: Nechville Zeus 5 String Banjo with Bag - $3,195 USD
IF YOU ARE A SERIOUS BANJO PLAYER, YOU HAVE HEARD OF NECHVILLE BANJOS.
It’s no wonder that such incredibly revolutionary banjos are the choice of Grammy Award Banjo Players such as Alison Brown, Bela Fleck and Emily Robison of the Dixie Chicks.
I am a Banjo Player myself and just love these Banjos for their tone, playability and cool looks, not to mention the fact that they are not as heavy as traditional Banjos.
About this banjo:
From the Nechville Website:
As you pick up the Zeus, you’ll realize why we named this banjo after the king of gods. You’ll be thankful for its unusually light weight. As your left hand explores the gently radiused ebony fingerboard, excitement sparks as you feel the smooth neck and view the inspired peghead shape.
You strum a chord with your right hand. Your eyebrows rise as a big banjo sound leaps out of the Heli-Mount pot. You’ve discovered banjo sound to the Nth power.
The beveled wooden armrest feels smooth on your forearm and you could play for hours. The neck shape makes chording easier providing clean, distinct and full bodied musical notes. You hear a woody, penetrating clarity with none of the sonic interference that is ever present in other traditional banjos.
You’ll be inspired but not distracted by the understated beauty of the Star and Saturn inlay theme. You see that the Nechville inline tailpiece is adjustable three different ways, and you remember that this is a Heli-Mount, customizable for any style or setup. You’ve heard how stable and versatile the Heli-Mount is, and now are struck by its simple elegant beauty.
Special rosewood tone ring and cyclotronic tone spheres deliver incredible punch and volume from every note played on the Zeus. Wide frets form a secure foundation for the strings and are longer-lasting.
Now you don’t have to settle for less than premium quality craftsmanship and sound. This is the banjo you have been seeking.

For Sale: 1988 Gibson Granada - $5,500 USD
Here is one you may want to look twice at! This is a very nice, 2nd owner, unaltered (except below), 1988 Granada. Flying Eagle inlays, gold is excellent, wood is exceptional and one I am having much trouble parting with. I am a very poor player and the gold just haunts me!
First full year of Greg Rich's production years. This one has a "frosted" early production Kulesh, Sr. tone ring which is rare. There is a story behind these if you care to call. This banjo is local to the Atlanta area and was played quite a bit during it's first years. I had Mark Bramlett (formerly w/Banjo.com) level and refret the board with medium stainless frets. The overall condition and playability are excellent. Mighty sweet sound! Not an ounce of disappointment in it. I will ship it but prefer a local sale if possible. Comes in a very nice and much sought after brown Gibson case with hot pink lining. The pictures should tell you quite a bit but you need to come play it. Thanks for looking. This is an instrument worth the money and I won't give it away. CAlls preferred. Scammers beware!

For Sale: PRICE LOWERED Gretsch 1883 Open Back (Not Antique) - $150 USD
I know, I know, it's a cheap banjo... but I personally think it's a fine easy playing banjo--it would make a great "hack about" banjo to travel with you where you don't want to take your awesome super expensive banjo! It's lightweight and sounds decent. I had a drummer friend tune and tighten the head for me and it really made a difference! Seems like the newer ones of these have a fiberskin head--this one doesn't. It even still has the plastic over the little truss bar cover up on the headstock. It has dual coordinator rods, and a rolled brass tone ring. So if you're thinking about getting a cheap banjo for...whatever...buy mine :) You'd be hard pressed to find a mark on it. Other than dust, it's like new. Just the banjo--I don't have a case for it. New ones are $239.00. Thanks for looking.
