With regrets I am selling my great open back ODE/Baldwin.
I bought it a few years ago and I have taken it to a few jam sessions. Great sounding banjo.
When I bought it I was told that one of Chuck O's employees assembled it together from parts he bought from ODE/Baldwin. Perhaps it was a second. Don't know.
It has all the ODE/Baldwin marks but the banner in the headstock and serial number.
To me it has the 100% Ode/Baldwin presence, projection, looks and playability. Such as the ODE tonering, 6-string Muse tailpiece, armrest. Adjustment to the neck is in the inside of the heel (need to take the neck apart). Solid rim, close-end hooks, Baldwin type headstock (simple).
Good padded gigbag or hardcase included.
Signatures on the ODE head include:
Cathy fink
Tom Chapin
Marci Marxer
Craig Miner (Ryan Shupe and Rubberband)
Thank you
Ivan
