I’m the original owner and purchased it new from Elderly Instruments in June 2011. The banjo is flawless with no marks of any kind (except for obligatory very slight tarnish on the armrest) and fret wear is non existent. The inlay and fretwork is perfect. Stelling makes a superb banjo with unparalled workmanship. The Stelling neck is the finest I've played. Thu, 9 Feb 2012 09:54 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=26735 I have 2 of these & they are both excellent with no flaws of any kind, and I don't need but 1! I will add pictures soon!

Mint condition (without tuners). Frets in excellent condition. Approximately 2 years old. Thu, 9 Feb 2012 09:51 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=26666 I think!!! 1977 Baldwin Ode Style D banjo. Really nice sounding and playing example. Bigger voice than others "D's" I have played with some real nice pop and sparkle to boot. Surprisingly strong bass too. No issues, just pick it up, start playing and channel your inner Bobby Thompson!. Gold plating on tension hoop has significant plating wear, oxidation and some pitting. That being said, I like the way it looks, but you may wish to have it re-plated. The plating on the flange, tone ring etc is in good condition. The normal player wear on the arm rest. Real good deal on a classic. Thu, 9 Feb 2012 09:50 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=26061 1928 Gibson TB-6 (FON - 9226-XX) Exc- condition.

Thu, 9 Feb 2012 09:50 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=26213 Alvarez Silver Belle 5 string banjo that's in excellent condtion. Doesn't show any wear whatsoever and the finish and plating is excellent. Frets, neck, fingerboard, hardware, and head just great and a very nice HSC is included with sale of this instrument. Banjo is more than likely 10/15 years old or so, but sat in the case in the closet most of its life. Banjo has a mahogany neck, with veneers down the center, maple resonator, rosewood fingerboard. This is an ideal beginner to intermediate 5 string banjo for the individual that is just getting into the banjo playing lifestyle and for a reasonable amount of investment.

Thu, 9 Feb 2012 09:47 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=17005 This is a beautiful looking and sounding banjo. This Bacon & Day Silver Belle #1 has been appraised to be made circa 1923 by George Gruhn. "Serial number 10513. This banjo conforms to the typical specifications of the Silver Belle style #1 with lathe-turned maple resonator, round hole flange connecting the resonator to the body, tone ring with exterior holes, laminated maple neck, ebony fingerboard with decorative pearl inlay, fancy pearl inlay on the front of the peghead, and nickle plated hardware. The four finger Oettinger tailpiece and geared tuners are later replacements. Originally this banjo would have a Grover Presto tailpiece and non-geared friction pegs. Current market value $2500.00" This appraisal was done in August of 2009. Also it does not include the original case, but does include a hard case. The inner rim shows no sign of a knee mute being removed. Very small binding crack from shrinkage. Perfectly symetrical. Please email for more info. Thu, 9 Feb 2012 09:36 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=24381 This one owner SUPER nice Gibson RB-12 Mastertone is in excellent condition. It was purchased in 1996 & has a serial #12-9603-5. it would be described as " mint " except for the minor surface "buckle rash" on the resonator that doesn't crack the finish & must be held at an angle to see. Also the armrest is slightly faded. Excellent plus condition is a fair assessment. The asking price of $ 5700 does include the original hardshell case. Any questions? Please call or email ! Thanks! Thu, 9 Feb 2012 09:34 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=17003 This is a supreme example of a Gibson TB5 banjo. Serial number is 11984-23. There is a letter from Gibson with it that verifies the year of birth, but an appraisal from Gruhns dates it 1923-1924. "Other than the Grover Presto tailpiece, which is not typical of this model and is seen on banjos from 1925 onward, it is in fine condition and conforms to the typical specifications of the model for that period, in which it was made, with hinged "trap door" resonator, gold plated metal hardware, ebony fingerboard with attractive decorative inlays, "The Gibson" and modified fern peghead inlays, pearl tuner buttons, and Cremona brown sunburst varnish finish. The pickguard and hard shell case appear to be the correct original style. At the time this banjo was made the TB-5 was Gibson's most deluxe model tenor banjo. This is an instrument which would be of interest to collectors more so than to musicians wanting a utility tool, but it is of fine quality. Current market value:$2500.00" This appraisal was done in March of 2008. Please call or email for more information. Thank you!

Thu, 9 Feb 2012 08:49 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=26734 I have a 1920s Bruno Tenor Banjo for sale. It's a fantastic little guy, but I don't play it as much as I should. According to the last owner, it was set up by Chuck Block, luthier and father of Ron Block, guitarist and banjo player for Alison Krauss. Chuck straightened the neck, cleaned up all the frets, put on a new bridge and set it up. This was about a year ago. It has a Rogers calfskin head with signature. It plays like a dream and has a fantastic sound. If you have any questions let me know. I'd love to keep it, but I just don't play it enough. I don't have a case, but I'll be sure to pack it very well. Here is a link to the fellow I bought it off of: http://www.banjobuyer.com/banjo/21721 He has some better pictures of it there. I will also take some more this evening. Thu, 9 Feb 2012 08:36 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=26644 This is a banjo I acquired from BHO member Banjodr, if you have ever heard, played or seen one of his banjo's you know what quality appearance and sound they have! He KNOWS what a real pre war sound is! He used a combination of original pre war parts combined with the best of recent components! (Huber Ring, Frank Neat neck). This banjo boasts a highly desired pre war rim with a Huber flat head ring - this ring is pre - "name etched on the outside skirt" so it blends well visually with all of the pre war parts. What follows is taken from the description when I purchased it: This banjo is a composition of parts that I have collected over the years from other purchases and trades and case candy etc. I'll start with the inside and work out. The rim is a refinished pre war Gibson style TB-11. Rual Yarboro had it done in the early 90's. It is finished in the style of a Gibson pre war style 3 or 75. The rim has an early Steve Huber 20 hole flatead nickel tone ring installed on it. The serial number for the tone ring is 32198 1 which indicates it is one of the very early Huber rings. The flange is pre war with the Doeller casting mark. The hoop is newer First Quality. The hooks and nuts are newer FQ also. Presto tailpiece. Armrest is 50's Gibson. Neck is mahogany Frank Neat style 3 leaves and bows The resonator was reskinned in the early 90's also in the mahogany style 3 with white black white concentric rings. This banjo is as old Gibson clanky sounding as you would ever want to have. It looks the part and sounds the part. Now you can have it and enjoy it without breaking the bank. Old original instruments seemingly have held most of their value during this crappy economic time so now you have the chance to get the pre war engine with the right look and feel. This banjo has as much pop as you would ever want and take it to your next jam and see who gets all the attention. Included is a hard shell case. Remember it is not a collector banjo based on originality, it is an A$$ kicking workhorse that will rock your bluegrass world. Sold as described, Shipping to Continental US only. If you want TRUE Pre War sound without selling the farm - heeeeers your banjo! Thu, 9 Feb 2012 08:30 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=26710 I believe this is a Buckbee or Dobson banjo from the 1890's..All brass hardware and has a new calfskin on it....I will include an extra set of rosewood pegs.. Thu, 9 Feb 2012 08:13 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=26704 I have a 2010 Standard that was a stock fretless and has had frets and star/dots added. Scooped, Nylgut string, amber head, Kershner tail piece, Vega style arm rest & a HSC.

It sounds awesome and is one I really hate to part with. I have toured the states, Israel, as well as Canada and performed with it on the Grand Ole opry several times. It comes with hard shell case. A incredible sounding banjo. Wed, 8 Feb 2012 19:08 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=16630 This is an exceptional banjo in great condition. It comes with a Robin Smith five string neck and new Gibson hard shell case. This is a firm price. The metal looks new and the one-piece flange is perfect. I garantee all the pot is all original including tailpiece and arm rest. The rim has "not" been cut and still has the original 1/4' brass ring. It's definatly a keeper and sounds great! Wed, 8 Feb 2012 19:07 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=26405 I have, reluctantly, decided to sell my Romero fretless banjo. It is #09209 on Jason's website. He made it in Nov. '09. Here is the link: http://romerobanjos.com/09209/09209.html The upgrades include: goatskin head, a Romero tailpiece, an S scoop at the 15th fret, and a dark stain. Jason made the bridge to fit either steel or nylgut strings. I'd love to avoid shipping, so I'm hoping that the interested person will be within driving distance of Philadelphia. If I'm not mistaken, this banjo would now cost $2680, including shipping. I am asking $2,100. Wed, 8 Feb 2012 19:06 CST eric@banjohangout.org http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/detail.asp?cid=26630 Serial no.#6069 Banjo is in like new condition , i've never taken it outside. Beautiful maple resonator, spikes on 7th,8th,9th,10th and 12th frets . Case is in great shape with key. Why buy a new one when you can get this one for about half the price? No tarnish , If you need more pictures let me know.. Banjo made 11-23-05 No Fret wear....
