This is an old Bruno Tenor banjo. As you can see it needs some serious work. It came to me in two pieces with a box full of parts. In terms of parts it needs a new head, a set of tuners, and a tailpiece. It needs some repair to the peghead and the fingerboard. The neck could likely be re-finished as well. It's a good old banjo that will one day play again. |
| The peghead is particularly rough shape. |

| After Repair | |
|
|
I completely repaired the peghead restoring it to almost new condition and installed a new set of friction tuners. |
| The rim and neck were stripped of the remaining old finish, dyed to get an aged look and then finished with nitrocellulose lacquer. All hardware was cleaned and polished. |

|
|
A new head and tailpiece were added to complete the project. |
| Another satisfied coustomer. |
