The GH&S Banjo is a vintage 4-string banjo made in England, with a classic design and original case, perfect for folk and world music enthusiasts. Known for its quality craftsmanship, this banjo is ideal for musicians looking for a reliable and authentic instrument with a traditional look and feel. The GH&S brand adds a touch of nostalgia and authenticity to this vintage piece, making it a valuable addition to any collection of musical instruments. The banjo belonged to one of my grandparents, it has been stored for many years I had some new stings replaced but have no knowledge of banjos, one thing to mention one of the clasps on the case is missing but it still closes and keeps closed, I have loosened the 4 strings so will need to be retuned. Any other questions please ask.
