Vintage Gibson trapdoor banjo dating to approximately 1923, professionally converted to a 5-string. The original Gibson pot assembly is intact, with the exception of two replacement tension hooks, the head, and the tailpiece. A new calfskin head was professionally installed by JD Balch. The custom 5-string conversion neck was built and fitted by banjo builder Mark Hickler. A dowel stick was added during the neck installation. Additional photographs or information are available upon request. The banjo will be carefully packed and shipped in a non-original hard case.
