Washburn B9-WSH 5-string Banjo - Excellent Condition Used



We have this Washburn B9 banjo in from a trade in excellent condition! While the banjo is a couple of years old, it was very rarely used and almost looks like new. There are a couple of signs of use that I felt kept it from earning a "Mint" rating, but these are incredibly small marks and general wear that doesn't really require getting into detail about. But essentially from most angles you couldn't tell that it has ever been used, and even when you spot a few minor marks, they are not at all intrusive. 

The banjo also has been professionally set up and has a great low action feel that's perfect for your fast fingerstyle playing. You don't need to fight the instrument anywhere on the neck and there are no issues with fret buzz or anything else. The strings are still the originals so they could perhaps use a refresh, but there's essentially no wear on them and the wound 4th is the only one that really looks like it could use a change. We will happily restring it free of charge (if you purchase the strings) along with the order of the banjo.

There are no accessories included with the banjo except for a few plastic fingerpicks and a thumb pick. 

Here's more about this banjo from Washburn's site:

The Washburn B9 is a 5-string Resonator Banjo featuring a Mahogany resonator and aluminum rim, 11″ grooved tension hoop, chrome armrest, traditional tailpiece, and geared 5th string Planetary tuner.

Washburn has been building banjos since the late 1800s. These instruments were considered some of the finest of their day. This heritage is not lost in the instruments we handcraft today. Pros & amateurs alike choose a Washburn for its outstanding tone, build & value.
