I recently came into a lovely set of Ivoroid friction tuners that reminded me of the Bruno banjo and its need for appropriate tuners. This 130-year-old set of friction pegs were typical of the 1880s or 90s. And since they are synthetic ivory, they are legal under the CITES regulations.

This example of the Hagstrom Jimmy F-hole archtop was built around 1977, in the second variation of that model. In 1976, the bodies became all laminated birch (they had been laminated spruce), with birch for the neck, block inlays and rosewood fingerboard.
