Nechville Starizon Phantom 5 String Bluegrass Banjo
Follow the link below to request this banjo, and include any special specification requests in your message.
Note: This banjo is a demo model- the neck was fractured below the volute and has been repaired. There are some superficial dings and light scratches but overall it is very clean.
Due to the repair on the neck we will warranty it for a period of 5 years to the original owner. The banjo is priced accordingly so it's a great opportunity to rock it as is or have something to play while we build you your dream neck. Or we could build a new neck like the one that's on it that would carry our lifetime warranty. Or a stripped down maple 'midnight' neck with ivoroid binding.
