Antique Supertone Dixie Special 5 string banjo. My late grandfather bought this new in the 1930's I believe. I just had it gone over by a banjo expert who replaced the tuners(the 4 original ebony friction pegs will be included) and replaced the long lost bridge(never leave an instrument out with toddlers) and declared it a sweet old instrument. Far from perfect but it is playable for sure. There is some fretwear but the repairman said don't touch it as it plays fine as is. If it does not sell, it will stay in the family as an heirloom. No case but it will be well packed and insured for shipping. As far as I can tell, the head is original.
