• The Windsor WHIRLE Dance Banjo Eclipse Model 10
  Walnut Neck, Ebonised Back and Rim, 12 Hexagon Tension screws. A well made instrument. Note the unusual was the 5th string feeds through the neck/fingerboard and up the headstock. Also and unusual point is that the necks were a slotted headstock with 3 per sid4e tuners even though it is a 5 string instrument. The reason is most likely that the tuner sets being 3 per side were more readily able to be supplied as an instrument part.
• This banjo is currently fitted with nylon strings, tonally, very good, not overly loud or sharp/bright but these instruments can also be suitably fitted with steel banjo strings for a more traditional banjo sound if required.
• An interesting and reliable old instrument. Comes with original but worn hardcase. Case handle missing.
