Here is a Banjo that looks cooler in person than in picture. Do not know much about it except it is a 1970's Gretch banjo, There is no information on the net that I have found to date, But it is cool looking to me, So, $50.00 dolars later, I walked away with it from a garage sale. I would like to know more....if anyone would be so kind to pass on that information.
I got it with that case in fairly good condition. It is a 5 string, and I do not know how to play it,...YET.
P.S. NO....it is NOT For Sale.

You have a early 70s banjo make by Kasuga in Japan for Gretsch. Kasuga was one of the biggest banjo manufacturers in Japan and made thousands tagged Ventura, Dorado, Alvarez, Aria, and many others. Its a good beginner to intermediate banjo and when set up properly will play and sound good. Its worth about $250 in good condition.
