This video showcases a rare, early 20th-century fretless tack-head banjo, described as an outstanding example of Southern folk art. The banjo features a heart pine neck, steam-bent white oak pot, hand-carved walnut tuners, and an original skin head with an iron hoop and nails. The description highlights tool marks and heavy use-wear, indicating frequent play, with deep grooves on the fretless fingerboard. The only known provenance is a note stating it was found in Virginia. The video also includes links to the creator's Bandcamp, merchandise store, Spotify, iTunes, Venmo, and PayPal.
