Fairbanks / Unger Conversion Open Back banjo (1890s/2000s)
Combining a vintage pot assembly with a recent neck, noted builder Doug Unger hits a home run with this conversion! Features include a (we're told) vintage Fairbanks metal-clad maple rim with a 10-3/4" skin head, a recent 2-piece mahogany neck with a bound rosewood radiused fingerboard. Equipped with original friction tuners and a No-Knot tailpiece. Appointments of pearl etched inlay. An excellent, vibey, plunky banjo! Shaped hard shell case. Made in USA.
