2004 Clareen Oyster 17-fret tenor banjo with resonator. Made in Ireland. 21” scale length; 11” rim; 13 1/2” resonator. Bird’s eye maple neck with ebony headstock overlay; ebony fretboard; flame maple resonator back. Gold-plated hardware; Schaller tuners with ivoroid tuning buttons. Set up with phosphor bronze strings in GDAE and 5/8” bridge. Clareen banjos are built in Ireland, and this banjo was built during the pre-CNC time when the pearl and abalone “marine motif” and logo inlays were hand-cut. Flange leaves can be individually removed so that the banjo can be used as a short-scale, open-back instrument.
Excellent condition overall, no cracks or repairs, neck is straight; minor finish-only aging cracks evident on the resonator; one ding on the headstock’s logo was partially repaired – noticeable only when you look for it. Comes in a newer Clareen ABS tenor banjo case.
$2,750 CAD plus shipping and insurance; no trades please. Shipping in Canada only (sorry, no Paypal); personal delivery/pickup in the Maritimes can be arranged to avoid outrageously high shipping costs. Additional pictures available on request.
