Banjos, etc.
|
No-name, looks like manufacture by Slingerland.
No tone ring, head rests on wood.
20 hooks, Nylgut mandolin strings. Yellowstone banjo head.
DIMENSIONS:
Head dia. = 11"
Scale length 13 3/4"
String span @ nut = 1"
String span @ heel = 1 1/8".
Bridge = 1/2"
SETUP:
* action @ octave = 3/16".
FLAWS:
Normal scuffing due to age.
Overall the finish is in very good condition. Some dirt on the head
because I play this one frequently. Otherwise, no significant flaws.
ON THE PLUS SIDE:
This is the first banjo-mandolin that I tried Nylgut strings on.... I may
never go back to steel strings for banjo mando. This one is a
pleasure to play.
