Research indicates that this may be a 1976 model as some of the early models came without a sticker on the shell. But with the "Hearts & Flowers" in the inlay, and the armrest attached to the hooks, it definitely was made from 1976 to 1978. The banjo has maple on the resonator and neck with a rosewood strip down the center of the back. 5 string, resonator with inlaid double concentric rings, beautiful maple finish, case bell bronze tone ring, hand cut
mother-of-pearl inlays carefully laid out in the "Hearts & Flowers" pattern on both the ebony fingerboard and peg head overlays. geared fifth peg, shop adjusted
