From the Victorian workshop of esteemed banjo maker, Laurie Grundy.
Excellent condition. S/No. 26-2005 the Flintriver has resonator and neck of highly figured Curly Maple.Ebony fingerboard with pearl flying eagles inlays by Dennis Eastmuir. One-piece flange. Chromed hardware, Presto tailpiece and Scorpion bridge. Gotoh Ivoroid tuners. Spikes at 7th, 9th and 10th frets. F34 tone ring is replica of pre-war Gibson. At full-tilt boogie this banjo is capable of ripping paint off walls or, softly, sweetly and sentimental will bring tears to the eyes of hardened crims!
The present owner went to some expense to have Laurie customise the neck to make over-fretting of the 5th string possible. This neck feels very elegant under the chord hand and the customising has improved up-the-neck speeds dramatically.
Excellent build quality, great set-up and superb tone.
