Here's a very nice old openback that is ready to play! The neck is laser straight, the action low (because of that marvelous angle adjustment device), good head, and the friction pegs hold the new set of 17s tightly. There is some wear on the first four frets. The pot could use polishing, if that's important to you; all the brackets and nuts are original to the banjo. There are no dings or dents in the neck or pot.
The bottom half of the neck angle adjuster was missing but a simple shim worked perfectly without altering any of the rest of the device. The dowel wedge is a replacement-crude but effective.
This Waldo is not as fancy as others, but the quality of construction is as fine.
