Perfect fit, hard to find size
It's ridiculously mislabeled, but the photo is correct. Should be "for Tenor Banjo" (Irish or not), not "Guitar". That said, I had bought one of these before, so I knew exactly what it was, how it fit and the quality. I bought my next two here because the price was substantially lower than any of the several other sources, all of whom charge the same.
If you have an open-back 17-fret tenor banjo with 10-3/4"- 11" head (I.e. 11.5"-12" total diameter, like an old Slingerland, or a Vega Little Wonder, this is going to fit beautifully—snugly, without a lot of slosh. Much better than most gig bags that are designed for resonator banjo and are a sloppy fit for open-back. And the quality is very good—tough exterior and thick, firm padding. A new hard-shell at a reasonable price is nearly impossible to find, but this is a very decent alternative.
