Can anyone give any info about a Vega banjo I have just bought. It is marked Whyte Laydie on both sides of the rim stick and underneath the rim stick is marked Fairbanks banjo by the Vega Co. Boston Mass.
style R. and has the No. 30199 on the rim and the rim stick.
It is a short scale tenor and sounds fantastic.
