Anybody out there recognize this one?
It's obviously a banjo peghead overlay that was never
installed. It's mounted on ebony, and the holes do not go through. The white
binding on the edge covers the ebony from the edge view. The dark border and
dark areas between pearl and abalone are tortoise celluloid; the creamy areas
are ivoroid.
I've wondered for years what banjo this fits. The general outline is similar
to a Stewart, but I've never seen Stewart use anything remotely like this
inlay motif. Lots of other companies used this shape as well, and this overlay
has a "production" look to it.
Any ideas? contact me
