The severe peghead set back makes one think that this is an early Geo.Clifton Dobson banjo. The 10 7/8ths inch pot is double spun and the neck angle is zero. The neck is straight, the frets show a little wear, the fret markers are small dots, the heel is big and round, and I can't make out what was on the 'scratch' plate. That's an H.C.Dobson tailpiece, all the brackets and shoes are original, the pegs are not, especially the Grover 5th peg.
Yep, a bit of a project, but good bones to start with.
The price is cheap and semi- firm, no trades, please. I'm in the 'eine bahn strasse' mode.
Oh, forgot, this banjo is not only for sale to persons with names starting with "N" or "Z"
