It has been set up by a custom shop and is ready to go to work. If needed I will get some pic's made. With a money back option you can't go wrong.Postal Money Orders Only Please.Please post on here if you have an interest in the banjo,so there will not be any confusion as to who gets first chance at the banjo.Donation to forum when sold.
Thanks,
Steve

I have yet to buy my first pedal steel but I have owned a few banjos over the years and this is a great professional level banjo. The new Goldstar 5-string banjo is as good as some other makes costing 3 to 4 thousand dollars IMO and I have owned some that cost that much. Hope you didn't mind me chiming in.

Hi Dan,
Thanks for the kind words about the Gold star. It is a very nice Banjo. I looked at several different ones at the shop where I bought this one,they had some of those high dollar Banjos and this one sounded real find to my ears. Just wish I could become more interested in learning to play it. Must have something to do with age

Thanks,Steve

Ok guys I need to move this Banjo. Its a very nice banjo with great tone,and plays very easy.No issues other than I don't need it. I was already taking a hard kick at the first price I listed.
New price is $700.00 shipped thats the best I can do,and the wife says I'm crazy for doing it. Maybe I am. dodson1022@yahoo.com for pics.
Thanks,
Steve

Steve, what model is this banjo? And how old is it?

Steve Dodson · Post by **Steve Dodson** » 14 Feb 2008 9:28 pm

Hi Stephen,
The Banjo is 1 month old and has been played very little. As for model number I will have to check.
The guy at the custom shop where I bought this one said the only difference between the 3 models he had was the inlay. Some of them had some pretty detailed inlay work. But he said as for as tone and the ease of playing they where the same.
I think this one is the GF-85. I think.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Steve
