1993 DEERING IVANHOE 5-STRING BANJO IN BRAND NEW CONDITION with Original HSC - $15,500 - (Carlsbad, CA)
1993 Deering Ivanhoe 5-String Banjo in Brand New Condition. Original Hardshell case included. I commissioned the creation of this banjo in 1993 as a spectacular musical instrument and a masterpiece of great American art directly from the brilliant banjo maker, Greg Deering. As I recall at that time, Greg said there were only 10 other Ivanhoe Banjos in existence. This one is number 11 and the serial number is: 111993-2862. For exact specs and other information please visit the Deering website at: http://www.deeringbanjos.com/products/deering-ivanhoe-5-string-banjo There you will notice that the only customized feature I ordered on this banjo is present on the banjo Deering used for pictures on the website. It is exactly the same banjo with my initials, RBH III, inlaid on the back of the headstock. Please see and compare my picture #6 and the website picture #4. Deering banjos are world renown as great playing musical instruments. This banjo is remarkably excellent in every regard. The 24 Karat Gold plated engraving on the tonering is unbelievably beautiful. The burled Walnut woodwork and the Abalone and Pearl Inlay are all stunning. The neck is perfectly straight and there is no fret wear nor marks or scratches of any kind. This Deering Ivanhoe banjo has never been played and still has the original strings on it from when I bought it. It has been stored in a temperature controlled, no pet, no smoke household in its original hardshell case, which is also in excellent condition. As my "playing" banjo I have used exclusively a Deering Plectrum Deluxe since 1990. I absolutely love it.
