Please keep an eye out for my banjo. It was stolen out of my car last night in the Midwood section of Brooklyn, NY. It’s a B&D Silver Bell. As soon as I can find pictures I will try and upload. This is the first series of Silver Bell. Resonator has round holes. It had a chili pepper strap attached at the time. In a hard shell case.
Thanks, Arbo.
Oh, so sorry, Arbo. Instrument thieves are scum. ![]()
I’m copying your notice to our Lost/Stolen/Missing forum, so look for replies there, too.
You should also alert The Session, and Ptarmigan’s new Tenor Banjo forum (see sticky thread). The more eyes, the better.
Hoping for a quick recovery!
Yes, details are already up on The Irish Tenor Banjo site & on Mudcat.
GOOD LUCK Arbo,
Cheers
Dick

p.s. Thanks for posting the pics!
Don’t know if you’re on the banjohangout.org but that might be a good place to post this as well.
