These banjos were made by Kate Spencer of Maple Leaf Music in Brattleboro, Vermont, and while this is a simple and plain model, it is quite solidly made. "A.E. Smith")
This older 11-inch openback is in really fine shape for its age, and would be a fine beginner's banjo.
With a bump hardshell case, this easy-to-play instrument is consigned here at $549. Sold
 "A.E. Smith peghead")
The peghead's finish has crazed slightly, but it is handsomely shaped.
 "A.E. Smith tuners")
The tuners are 5-Star brand planetaries.
 "A.E. Smith neck")
The neck is blond maple. Note the planetary 5th string tuner.
 "A.E. Smith dowel stick")
The 11-inch maple pot has a thin brass tone ring.
 "A.E. Smith head")
It's set up with a Fiberskyn brand head and a Waverly-style tailpiece.
 "A.E. Smith inlay")
The cherry fingerboard has MOP dot inlays.
 "A.E. Smith back")
As was said above, a solid performer, and a great beginner's banjo at a most reasonable price.
