1976 Aria Pro II 5-String Banjo
This banjo has a warm yet bright overall sound with a very loud pick attack and great volume and resonance! Solid wood rim and dual metal coordinator rods and an angled tone ring, a double-bound mahogany resonator. The neck inly features the ‘Tree of Life’ which were only produced during the1976 productions. You will not fine a better looking, sounding, and quality made banjo in this price range.
Condition: Very Good overall.
Does have some normal playing fret wear but does not affect the sound. Low action on neck and it rings nicely up the neck. This banjo really sings with a bright and clean tone when played with drive. Does have a few faint hairline scuffs on the back of resonator and one line on the side of resonator but it seems to be under the clear coat. Has some scratching on the rim at places but they are hidden by the resonator.
Neck: Super comfortable maple neck with a bound rosewood fingerboard. There are abalone inlays beneath the binding.
Weight: 11lbs, 6.5oz.
Case: Includes a nice clean hardshell case. (DOES NOT include the leather strap that may show in the photos.)
Add ons:
Bill Keith D-Tuners
High Quality Maple Snuffy Smith bridge
Shubb 5th String Sliding Capo
Deering Tailpiece
(Original Tailpiece will be inside the hardshell case.)
