Hello,
This is my first time here, so please excuse me if I’m posting this in the wrong thread. I’ve been looking for an original armrest for a Leedy Solotone banjo for a long time. Is there anyone here who owns one and might be willing to sell it? Alternatively, if you have any experience with this, which non-original armrest might fit? I’m also looking for screws for the resonator. Do you know their size, or which ones would fit?

I’m also looking for an original armrest for a Bacon and Day Silver Bell Style 1 banjo, but I already have a non-original one installed on that one.

Thank you for any replies.

You didn't necessarily put in it the wrong forum, but I think you'll get more information if I move it to the building, set up and repair forum.

You also might get more attention for your post if you edit the title to be specifically what you want people to know. For example:

Pigeontown Banjo Co might be able to help. I'm guessing that "pick rest" is a "pick holder". If so, did B&D make their own? I have a vintage nickel plated Grover pick holder available.

Thank you, I'll fix that—the title makes it sound like I'm offering parts.

I'm sorry, I meant the armrest on the Bacon and Day as well; I've corrected it in the question. In any case, thanks for the link; I'll try to contact the company.
