I used to own it, and I'm trying to get it back.

Has anyone ever seen any instrument with a rosewood neck?

Christopher, I just found out that it isn't uncommon.

I got the banjo, btw.

Congratulations! It appears acquisition mode is serving you well, recently. (wistfully...There still remains *one guitar that got away* out there that I hope, someday, to find...)

Is there a story that accompanies the banjo (with pic's) you might care to share at some point? ;~}

Melissa Etheridge has a pretty funky electric banjitar. Probably been discussed before.
