Rare Vega DeLuxe original 5 string banjo with hard shell case. Gold plated, engraved with abolone shell capping. Mother of pearl buttons. 10 and 15/16th head size. Most elaborate heel carving--more profuse than a regular #9...engraved Individual flanges can be removed to play as an open back...See pics...Can send more after I get a new PC---using the library till then,,,Hate to sell but I can only play two at a time and I have to many as it is. Getting old and the kids dont want them left to them in the will. They want CASH. Go figure?...I believe George Grhun sold one like this but an open back for 15K but it had a very light abalone shell capping. Mine has green abolone hearts type which are really beautiful. Have some history of past ownership...Sounds amazing. Neck is super straight...PS I may take cash plus banjo trade...I cant seem to upload pics from my BH account here at the library but call me and as soon as I get another PC ill send them off to interested parties....Sorry for that.
