Vintage LEO MASTER 5 String Banjo  I'm not a banjo player or repair tech so I will not know all details on this banjo, I will do my best to describe it, to my best knowledge it was made around the 1940/50's.  It has 24 brackets,  the head measured at 11"  and it weights 6 lbs 10 oz, measures from the nut to the 12th fret 13 5/16"  some one has used some cardboard to wedge the neck front and back where neck joins body  (see pics) the action is a little high, it has some oxidation on tension rods and brackets,  the back resonator is starting to pull apart some put not to bad, this looks like it can be glued back so maybe not noticeable.  To my best the tuning keys may need adjusted but I thick they are good.  The nut and bridge look good,  the head is dirty but in good condition, the frets are thin looking but I think there are good, inlays look good, over all frets, inlays and fret board show some use but I believe it still has a lot of life in her, just needs
a little attention,
.   ( It comes with a new hardshell case ( has keys ), case has a few scratches,  I am selling this as a project so it will be sold as is in found condition no refunds or partial refunds.  I'm thinking someone could take it apart give it a good cleaning and adjust the neck back correctly and hopefully it will be a good player,  it is a nice vintage piece, hate to see it not being played.
Please ask questions before purchase.  Also email me if need more pics and what kind you will need.    Thanks
