This is a an absolutely stunning Banjo in perfect condition.
It features a custom made resonator built by Hank J Volk of the Henry J Banjo workshop. The resonator is lathe turned and of solid beech, the fit is perfect and requires no hardware (a "press fit ")
The banjo pot is Irish sycamore and the build is up to Mr.Dave Boyle's usual high quality.
The arm rest features some hand engraving which is not normally standard .
I have fit a new OME "EST" (even string tension) tailpiece which is of heavy nickel plated brass and it suits this banjo beautifully. The custom bridge is Irish yew and ebony. With this banjo comes a Union Blues luxury genuine Leather case with 1" thick high density padding and back straps which is a real life saver if you are someone who walks to and from gigs .
The price takes into account the cost of the custom resonator, the leather case and the new OME tailpiece , all of which have a value of €750. The original resonator is also included.
