Cedar Mountain Openback Jubilo 200, “A” scale banjo with gig bag.

More information about Cedar Mountain banjos can be found on their website. If you check out the Jubilo line section, you can hear David Holt play a J200 banjo like this one (except that his is a “G” scale.)

- Maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and peghead cover,
- Bone nut,
- Planetary tuners,
- 22.75” scale, overall length 32.5”

Immaculate condition except for two small chips on neck at edge of 3rd and 4th frets (see above pic).
I’m rationalising my banjo collection after going a bit manic over the last two years and collecting 12 banjos Hence the sale of this banjo and some others.
Price $680 (includes gig bag) ONO, pick up from Broulee NSW South Coast free – otherwise $70 for postage.
