Sully 19 Fret Tenor Banjo



Sully Custom model standard scale 19 fret resonator tenor banjo built in 1998 by John Hullah and endorsed by Tony Sullivan. This custom model has a whyte ladie  tone ring seated on a rolled 3/4″ solid maple rim, which gives this little gem its shear power and sustain. All parts are of the finest quality as you’d expect from Sullivan banjos, 1/2″ notched brass tension hoop with 24 hooks and rounded nuts. Clamshell tailpiece, armrest, geared tuners fitted with ivoroid style buttons. Rosewood fretboard with MOP dot inlay position makers, good frets and low action. The nut width is 30mm and the scale length from the inside nut to the bridge is 22 – 1/4″. The flange has individual plates which are removable one section at a time to convert to an open backed if you so wish to.  All together a fine modern banjo that can accommodate a fishman pickup if you fancy using for gigs. Comes with a modern hardshell case.
