Howdy, y'all.
I got a tenor banjo recently that doesn't have any easy ways to identify what year and make it is.
The head stock was painted over and the truss rod was replaced, so I'm hoping the experts (you) can lend a hand.
Thank you!

Your description gives absolutely no clue as to anything. You will need to post close up photos of it for an ID.
Oh, and by the way, Welcome to the Hangout.

You know, that would be helpful. Sorry about that. Just added them to the top post.
