1924 Weymann Style 35 Banjo-Mandolin
Overview: These little Weymann banjo-mandolins are rugged, practical instruments and nice, understated, good-looking pieces to own. This one has a poppy, clean sound that's excellent for folksy tunes but can do a bit of trad-jazz choppy chord stuff, too. It's original throughout and pretty clean, too, save for minor aesthetic stuff.
Repairs included: This got a level/dress of the frets, side dots, cleaning, and setup work. It's playing spot-on and ready to serve.
