This banjo armrest is designed to fit any banjo with a standard 11 inch rim banjos no matter if it has a 18, or 24 bracket head configuration, open back or resonator banjo. This one size fits all banjo armrest is the first of it's kind! The chrome matches most banjos too.
There are a few exceptions listed below.
It will fit all the different banjo models with wood back resonator or open back banjos made by banjo manufacturers Gibson, Gold Tone, Recording King, Fender, Washburn, Gretch, Morgan Monroe and all other models with the standard 11 inch rim with the 18, or 24 bracket head configuration with round banjo head tightening hooks or brackets, open back or resonator banjo.
This armrest will even fit 30 bracket "bottle cap" aluminum pot banjos that you can count 30 head tightening brackets on. This is a common design of lower priced beginner banjos for over 40 years. Two good examples of banjos with the 30 bracket aluminum pot banjo design are the Fender FB54 or the Washburn B9. But over the years there were many different names stamped on the same 30 bracket banjo aluminum pot design.
THESE ARMRESTS ALSO FIT THE GOLD TONE AC-1 AND OTHER AC MODELS WITH THE 11 INCH RIMS.
IT DOES NOT FIT THE AC-12 MODELS WITH 12 INCH RIM
For AC-12 models with 12 inch rim this armrest will fit.

This armrest WILL NOT fit banjos that have FLAT brackets for tightening the head.
Some lower cost banjos like the Washburn B7-A, Savannah SB-100 use flat head tightening hooks instead of the more common round hooks. Flat Hooks have a flat area just under the hook and then become round at the bottom so the nut will screw on them. The reason these armrests are called "Fits All" is because they fit any AMOUNT of brackets. not just traditional 24 bracket banjos like Gibson Mastertones. But most banjos have round hooks, not, flat hooks.
So, these armrests fit all bracket spacing as long as the banjo has "round hooks".
