I recently got a 5-string banjo.It says "Conqueror" on the headstock in pearl,looks kinda old but still in good shape,has 22 frets, it has 30 brackets,it's light brown flange with a split down the middle,and theres like an upside down heart, on the tailpiece.I have no idea how much it's worth so,if anybody could tell me anything (anything!) about it I'd appreciate it

I don't know anything about it but I ran across a Conqueror 4 string banjo that a friend was left by his mother. It also has quite a bit of pearl in it. Has nice butterflied wood on the back. Pretty good shape but needs strings. I too would like to hear from anyone who knows anything about the Conqueror banjos.
Re: Conqueror Banjo
I have a Conqueror as well. Got it used back in 1979 as a rental with option to buy, which I did. I would also be interested in any information regarding this banjo. Thanks.
