Awesome tag sale find

Yesterday was national tag sale day apparently and my ma asked me to go along tagging with her. We went to a few houses with nothing that really interested me there. Old vases and paintings aren't particularly my thing. I went to this one house where I've been before. The older gentleman who owns it has a whole bunch of 80's VW Rabbits in his yard so I'm already hooked. Well I walked up and saw a gem of an old irish tenor banjo on a table. I payed a few bucks for it, but the backstory that I was given was wonderful. Apparently it's from the 1880's. It's a beautiful instrument and a wonderful addition to my collection of old instruments. I don't know how to play the banjo yet, but I've figured out a few chords already and I've played guitar for the past decade. Here is some pictures. Enjoy CR!
