Up for sale is a left-handed, Deering/Vega "Little Wonder", 12 inch, 5 string, open back banjo. It is in mint condition, with virtually no playing wear to the frets. I have upgraded the original hardware with Balsam Banjo Works brass fittings. As you can see from the pics, it really does look the part of an old time banjo. I've added the Rickard armrest and Snuffy Smith bridge. It comes from a smoke and pet free home. I am incliuding all of the original parts, 4 sets of strings a banjo book and spikes. Shipping to CONUSA only.
