Up for sale is a vintage 1970s Odessa 5-string resonator banjo with a classic look and warm, punchy tone. This banjo features a natural mahogany resonator back that is in very nice condition with some very light surface scratching, mahogany neck paired with dot inlays and sealed  banjo tuners. Overall, the banjo is in very good condition and sounds great and ready to be enjoyed by the new owner. It looks to have had a light touch up on the binding at the 5th tuner, and the tail piece hinged cover is missing a pin on the treble side.  Will come with a strap  and hard shell case (one back latch is missing a screw.)

• Sealed Banjo tuners

•  Natural mahogany resonator back, mahogany neck

•  Binding has been touched up near the 5th string tuner (purely cosmetic)
