This is an all-original Vega Little Wonder tenor banjo in excellent condition with hard case and key. The Little Wonder is a fantastic banjo for the price and will hold its value, unlike its newer competitors. Plenty of volume, good tone, and nice sustain that will sound great in any setting, solo playing to large session.
Neck - 19 frets, 23" scale, maple with ebony center strip, ebony fingerboard, frets were leveled and dressed, ivoriod binding, and Vega star inlay on the peghead
Rim - The rim is maple with the Little Wonder tone ring, tortoise celluloid binding, 28 hooks, 4 piece flange, maple resonator
Setup - Setup for Irish Trad in GDAE tuning, low action
Notes - There are a few nicks/scatches on the pegead, some minor finish checking/crazing on the back of the peghead and resonator, bottom of the resonator so crazing with slight staining from the case. The original Jos B. Rogers calfskin head and Vega wrench are included.
