Hey guys, I have absolutely no idea how much this banjo is worth. or what model it is. Can someone help me figure this out? I got it from my great uncle.

When it comes to the banjos and mandos I don't really have a clue as to prices - the market (or lack thereof) seems to determine the price.
For what it's worth, that is a MIJ model, and appears to be more 'deluxe' compared to many of the models I've seen out there.

Any idea how i'd go about finding how much this thing is worth? If you don't that's absolutely fine. I'm moving to a different city with pretty much just the clothes on my back and need to sell it. I really wish i knew more about banjo's and such.
It's pretty much in perfect condition too which is awesome.

I've seen ED banjos listed anywhere between $50-500, but I doubt many of the 500-region listings actually sell.
I'd suggest you either take it to a music store, guitar tech, or luthier to ask their opinion; or list it at whatever price you think it's worth and list it "OBO" (or best offer) and see what best-offers you get for it.
Best of luck!
