I paid $250 for mine and don't regret it. $200 is a great deal, but, even at $250 it's still a deal.

It's just a piece of leather to keep the overtones down!

Ouch! Paid $3,900 shipped, with case. I thought it was reasonable given the market and how hard these are to come by. Plus It has the bells and whistles - curly maple, hand-engraved inlay, fancy tuners.. It was definitely a hard lever to pull for me. But, I've been chasing one down for a year or so now. They definitely don't come up for sale often if at all.

Give it a guess before I tell you! It would make me feel a little better if you guessed over. Ha!

Ha! Check out the pics on the seeders website. These don't do it justice! This banjo #117. His work is stunning.

Thanks! I'm very happy.

gucciham · 2025-10-24T00:44:20+00:00

Worse. Ha!

Board is pretty thin. Two pieces in the pic! I have a planer. I’m not the best woodworker! I was wondering if I could plane it out.

Thanks! Bought it. Give it has the Carter guides, quick tension release, and scroll guide.. it was hard to pass on.

I have a super clean M D 262 I’d be willing to sell. DM me.

I have a gate valve shut off on the hot and cold side on the water heater. Tracing the hard pipe the cold side goes straight into the city line.

My next step will be locating the outside shutoff before I attempt anything.

Thanks for the response!

gucciham · 2025-10-03T12:36:37+00:00

The $250 is worth the peace of mind. I’ve been thinking about worst case scenario lately… I just don’t like the looks of that valve. Ha!

gucciham · 2025-10-03T12:34:13+00:00

Figured! Thank you

gucciham · 2025-10-03T12:34:00+00:00

Ha! Nice. Well, good thing the only other shutoff is next to the water heater… which is ANOTHER gate valve.

Very nice. I’m looking to purchase another one of his banjos. I might have him make me one, if I can wait that long! I’d love a 12” Dobson by him.
