Research:
This is a 1979 archtop made in Japan as indicated by the serial number. The G11HF has a 40 hole archtop tone ring, mahogany, two piece flange. Came with hearts and flowers 2 w/b/w concentric rings on the resonator.
Notes:
This is one of the best kept 1979 banjos I’ve seen. Even the inside of the resonator is pristine. The metalwork needs polished, but otherwise everything is in tip-top shape. The banjo has only been lightly played for the last decade. You can see a novice player (me) noodling on it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2oHsgMemVo
A fantastic banjo!
