Beautifully Engraved Wildwood Balladeer Open Back Banjo. This banjo is in excellent shape and sounds as good as it looks. I'm only selling because I don't have time to learn clawhammer!
Mark Platin made these open backs for 50 years. There's no serial number, so dating is an educated guess. His banjos were excellent in style, tone, and construction.
This banjo is clean with no marks on the finish from capos, picks etc.
