Gariepy 5 String Banjo
1960's Gariepy 5 String banjo in fantastic all original condition with original soft shell case and accessories. No cracks or breaks, no modifications or repairs, all original finish and parts, original tuners and case. Straight neck good neck angle, needs a new head and set up only. Super fine example of a known Long Beach CA maker known for his "flush fret fingerboard" where in the 60s he was scalloping the frets of banjos to make them play and sound better, even though very clever, thank God this one doesn't have that.
