Weymann Keystone State Banjeaurine (c.1909)

Made in Philadelphia in the early 20th century, this Weymann Keystone State Banjeaurine is a great sounding short-neck variant of the openback banjo, set up with nylon strings and tuned to A tuning (aEAC#E). It has a mahogany neck with a carved floral pattern heel, and fancy wood marquetry on the inside rim. The pearwood fingerboard has slotted pearl inlays, with multiple wood underlays below the fingerboard and headstock, and abalone floral and quarter moon inlays on the headstock. Other features include a metal clad rim, an elite tailpiece, and newer Planetary tuners and geared 5th string peg. No case. This instrument is in very good-excellent condition.
