1923/24 Vega Style K Banjo Mandolin

For sale we have a Vega Style K in good vintage condition. This instrument appears to be all original hardware-wise with the exception of the bridge. The strap tuners work fine with secure buttons. The neck stick and pot serial numbers match, with 59308 putting year of manufacture at either 1923 or 1924 depending on which list you use on the web. The headstock has some edge dings. The original loop tail piece has the cover. The nickel hardware has patina, with surprisingly little corrosion for its age. The ebony FB and frets are in good condition. The pot has some rock to it when laid on its back having pulled out of flat a bit over the last century, and the action is high. The neck is straight with nice fall away over the body, so some one with the time and expertise may be able make this a better player.
