Not quite the sort of banjo most Irish players use, but I thought it might be worth a mention anyway. I have a nice Mike Ramsey “Chanterelle” five-string open-back clawhammer banjo for sale. Maple neck and 12" pot; fiberskyn head. Comes with a great TKL hardshell case. I am not sure of the exact model, but it’s not one of the fancy ones - this has a simple star inlay on the peghead, dots on the fretboard, and a brass tone ring. Asking price $850 plus shipping costs.
I can send pictures or any other information to anyone interested - email or PM me.
Thanks
