This is a very rare banjo made by Willie. The 5th string is tunneled in the neck. I had two banjos made by Willie but this is the last one as I have sold the other one. This a very special banjo and no more to be made by Willie as h has made his trip to heaven. I have lowered the price. 5 string resonator Banjo with 5th string tunneled through neck to peg head. Banjo # 45 made in 1996 by Willie Huff. We are the first and only owner of this Banjo. The Banjo hardware is all gold plated including the tail piece and 5th string capo Willie designed and made. Has an arm rest Willie made. Banjo has multiple layers of inlay on resonator and mother of pearl with other inlay work. Willie had the fret board inlay done by someone else and said in 1925 Gibson chose to use the hearts and flower over this inlay. All I really know is that his abalone shell inlay is beautiful. Banjo sounds and looks great. Will include a nice case. Thanks for looking. For more information call Russ 319-750-8159
