11" Walnut Openback with Padauk Tonering

A very nice walnut banjo with a padauk tonering and padauk accents. The ebony fretboard has a larger gold pearl dot in the 5th and a pearl star at the 7th fret. There is also an engraved star in the headstock. The red of the padauk compliments the dark walnut color and really makes a beautiful banjo. The banjo has a 17 fret neck with a frailing scoop, exposed truss rod nut in the scoop, railroad spike capo at the 7th fret, and Gotoh 2-Band tuning machines. The head is a fiberskyn and the tailpiece is a No-Knot. The pot also has very nice machined brass L-shoes, brass hooks and nuts, with all other hardware being nickel plated.
