VEGA LITTLE WONDER TENOR BANJO 

This pre war 17 fret resonator tenor banjo with 28 piece flange has been renovated, the neck and resonator have been refinished so look stunning and any metal parts that needed it have been replaced with modern repro vintage parts. Neck, pot and resonator all in blonde maple and the headstock and heel cap have been re-stained in the original chocolate brown colour. The original friction tuners have been replaced with modern geared tuners for easy and accurate tuning. A new Remo Renaissance head has been fitted along with a new  bridge.  The serial number: 56663 dates the year of manufacture to 1924 and is stamped on both the dowel stick and the rim. Of course this banjo features the incomparable Little Wonder tone ring making this a great session banjo being fairly lightweight but packing a punch in tone and volume.  This 85 year old banjo looks and sounds terrific. The short scale length makes this a very good banjo for those who find the stretch of a 19 fret banjo a little too difficult. Sorry no case but I'll pack well if it needs to be posted. Price: £750
