First, my beloved Martin OM-21 and 1920's Slingerland pot with a Karsten Schnoor neck:



Then my jazz combo, a The Loar LH-700 and a Prucha Pioneer tenor:



Detail of the peghead. This is, of course a Weymann shape and inlay pattern. Unfortunately, this photo doesn't catch all the subtleties in the pearl:

Hi Steven, Nice Instruments! The Martin OM-21, even though I don't own one, has always sounded good to me when playing one in a store and they always seem to have excellent spruce tops. I'm always interested in combination banjos made up of different assemblies such as your Slingerland/Schnoor banjo, and the peghead inlay is gorgeous. Prucha banjos are well thought of but I haven't played one, yet. Enjoy!
