Village of Baoma, Sierra Leone
Serial # 325 on dowel
Stamped "John C. Haynes & Co. Boston. Dowel also stamped "Bay State".
Scale length 25 in.
Head dia. = 10 7/8 in.
30 hooks
Rolled-over tone ring.
The peghead is grafted onto the neck. This is done more neatly than most repairs.... I wonder if the banjo was built this way to give the appearance of a backstrap ? See Banjo Hangout discussion at banjohangout.org
Fingerboard inlays are identical to my Gatcomb Standard, see same BHO topic for discussion on the inlays.
