Tenor Banjo 19 fret

Rare Dutch handcrafted Irish tenor banjo. An unusual banjo. I had another Dutch banjo a while back, made by hand by Van de vrie , the well regarded Dutch luthier. This one is similar in that the banjo is clearly hand crafted to a very high standard. There's a 5 piece precision engineered neck, quality geared machine head tuners, abaloma mother of pearl inlays along the rosewood fingerboard, an arched tonering for quality tone and resonance, original calfskin head.Engraved wrist rest and tailpiece of a floral design. The pot is made of , as far as I can tell, aroco, beech and boxwood. Fine marquetry work on the back of the pot, professional fitting and finishing. Overall sound is quite plunky, good reverb especially noticeable on slow tunes, up to 5 seconds or so, tone is nice.
