Guitar/Banjo #2215

Well aged vintage leather with a character that would prefer an older instrument; but there are no rules. I made one similar to this that’s on my heaviest banjo. A short, wide “Stubbie” that will comfortably carry some weight, pamper your shoulder thru a late night jam, and easily tuck into the case for the trip back home.
