Re: Framus 4 string banjo repair

Thanks Tom
I saw them as much as $1600. but 200-300 was common. I was hoping someone had some info on serial #s or models.

Thanks

Re: Should I attempt this repair?

I know this is late but that does look like a fairly simple repair with HHg. as long as it was trauma that caused it. it looks a little suspect of a flaw in the neck wood.
