Old ODE banjos are awesome and have quite the reputation. This 6506 from 1975 won't disappoint. It sounds fantastic and plays effortlessly. 5th string spike capos have been installed at frets 7, 8 and 9. The banjo has normal wear you'd expect to see on a banjo of this age. The worst is some buckle rash on the resonator and some wear on the back of the neck behind frets 7-12 (give or take).
The original tailpiece is in the case. Overall, this is a wonderful instrument, in very good used condition. Nice and heavy banjo. It comes with a hard shell case to complete the package. Don't miss this one! The original tailpiece is in the case.
