A Banjo. made Famous by George Formby
I know it's a banjo lol. I mean any info on the make/model as there are no markings on it :-)
I didn't make that one.
Yawn, bunch of comedians on here huh? Cheers for nothing muppets :-)
Well, I've made banjos & this isn't one of them. No joke.
I wasn't asking if you had personally made it. I was asking for a wee bit of help from one musician to another in order to gain some information on the make/model of it :-). Clearly, there's some people on here that are only looking to make smart arse comments
Usually, I'm the biggest one. LOL! Welcome to CyberAsylum, aka CW
Lol
So, do you actually have any info on this?
Looks like a nice long neck , 5 string blue-grass banjo. Since it's still in the case, I can't even tell if it has a resonator. I've just made a few because of my luv of them & can't even play one.
I think it's a guitar banjo of some sort as it's all encased in wood/closed back with some sort of inlay in the centre (flowers)
I just enlarged it and now see that it isn't a traditional Amer. 5 string with a key on the side! I think you are on the right track. Next time, maybe we can help you less to answer your own questions. LOL!!
Oh. I would like to see the back of the pot. Does it have a convex resonator larger in dia. than the pot? You are allowed 4 pix.
