I look for style n Vega banjo conversions but just don’t see them much anymore . Hard to price without sales comps
I picked this up in August. Vega N style pot with Bart Reiter neck. 25.5 scale length and wider nut width. $900. I love playin it!
Mine looks as good as that one maybe I’ll ask that same price and see if there is any interest
The Senator is the Plectrum/5-string version of the N.
Same LW tone ring as the Little Wonder/Regent but with a mahogany neck, 26 brackets and a grooved stretcher among other differences.
Thanks Mike.
For reference I bought a 1925 'N'..all original 5 string back in 2015 for the equivalent of $950usd.
Great little banjo although those "ebonized" wood fretboards from the period are quite soft.
Mix of old & new Vegas, not all conversions...yet

I would think doing the OP’s kinda work, pricing would be cost of materials+labor+overhead+reasonable markup= selling price.

No such thing. An original 5 string would have been a Senator.
No doubt that whatever you bought was well worth $95.
