Zach Hoyt 5 string banjo (12" Openback, African mahogany, with hardcase)

Price: £1,249.00 GBP ($1,649.96 USD)

*Just a clarification regarding the price, as I appreciate this appears much higher than the amount listed on the website. This is due to the high cost of tax and shipping associated with importing this instrument from the US, I have still taken over £250 away from the total amount I spent just because this is now a used instrument (albeit well cared for).

A beautiful and wonderfully playable Banjo, with a warm and woody tone. Currently with fresh Aquila classic banjo strings (nylgut) which I think sound excellent on this Banjo, however the instrument would work just as well with steel strings as this is what the instrument was initially set up for. This instrument is comfortable to play, with a slightly thick neck, wide fingerboard, and wide spaced strings (1.6in at bridge, 1.1in at nut).

This instrument shows signs of use, including case-rash on the pot hardware. Purchase includes a Superior 12" Banjo hardcase, shown in pictures.

Here is the listing as it originally appeared on Zach's website:

I wish to stress that the video on the website above does not do the sound of this instrument justice, please let me know if you would be interested in a sound sample and I can try to make one although I'm not much of a player anymore.

Regarding collection, I would gladly travel partway to pass on this instrument to you. I can get to Cardiff, Birmingham, and London without issue. Please do not hesitate to contact me if there is anything you would like to ask about this listing.

Shipping: Collection, can travel easily to Cardiff, Birmingham, London
