I am a long time Helix fan and I have thoroughly enjoyed this banjo. But I've been playing less and been much more involved in my other hobby, building custom cars and engines for people. I just don't have the time to give this banjo the time it deserves. So I've decided to offer it up to someone who can really use it. this was a no expense spared build several years ago. The first Monarch (wormy chestnut) rim, and the only completely wormy chestnut banjo in existence. Even the bridge.Custom neck and resinator with multiple lamination of chestnut, holly and bloodwood. Custom abalone inlays, seen only on this banjo.Has Gotoh tuners and Fults tail piece. I can send pix or they can be seen on my home page. $2000 OBO Chris 216-854-0359

	Helix says: 12/8/2014 7:21:29 AM I believe it is Monarch #002. In 2009, it was an "All Banjo Hangout Cooperative project. I made the rim in AZ. The neck and REz were made In Kentucky, the Bridge from Austin, Texas, assembled in Ohio. Real strong fun, I wish more people would do this. All right Mr. Moparcolt, what color T-Shirt? Red or Black?
