Bought in 2011 from Elderly with the description below: "Bart's only model with a 12" rim - Mahogany neck, 12" diameter rim with rolled brass tone hoop and Elite Renaissance head, 26 brackets, Five Star planetary tuning pegs, adjustable truss rod, ebony fretboard (1-1/4" wide at nut, ~26 3/16" scale) scooped above 17th fret, ebony peghead overlay with pearl star inlay. Bottom edge of rim is stained black."
Banjo is 2011 serial #3478 and is in like-new condition with upgrades listed:
John Balch calf skin head, custom formed on #3478 rim
Original Elite head included
Ni-plated dowell ferrule
Iveroid tuner pegs
Arm rest
Gibson hard shell case used (resonator style, replaced handle)
Selling the Round Peak since I personally prefer Bart's 11" models. Sounds great.
