GOOSE ACRES - GALAX MODEL (1987) # 575
11" Rim
Walnut Neck (made by Kevin Enoch who was a builder at Goose Acres at the time)
Scale 25.25"
This was an early model created by 3 builders @ Goose Acres in 1987.
Peter H. Smakula, Bob Smakula & Kevin Enoch
Prior to settling on their Traditional model they flirted with a banjo made for the Galax Fiddlers Convention sound, which was becoming very popular at the time. The bridge is moved slightly more to the center and there is a frailing spot on the neck. It is not a scoop.
This banjo had a very sturdy feel and a solid precise sound. It plays very well up the neck.
comes with a newer SUPERIOR brown bump case
TRADE: I will consider a trade for a FAIRBANKS / VEGA SENATOR or REGENT with a 26" scale.
Will ship either UPS or FED EX (your choice) - in a professional instrument box.
