MY 1975 OME JUGGERNAUT (SN 1012) IS HOME AGAIN!!!

Friday, October 14, 2011 @11:51:21 AM

I've owned many banjos over the years, but this is the first time one came back to me after I sold it--mistake corrected!!

After a visit to the Ome Banjo Company earlier this year, I got re-inspired by Ome banjos, especially their vintage models back when Chuck Ogsbury had Rosewood lumber available. Anyway, with the help of my friend John Miller ("NDJohn") who was one of the many previous owners, I was able to track down the current owner, Dave McCracken and we struck up a WIN-WIN trade for my relica RB4 and I'm very happy how it worked out.

Pictures of this fine instrument are posted here: http://www.banjohangout.org/myhangout/photos.asp?id=4174&albumid=6119
