   The neck may be the only part made by Frank. I would call Frank and tell him   
   the situation..502-855-4515.   
      
   Give him the name of the person and he probably has a record of the sale and   
   whether he made the entire banjo or just the neck and can give you an   
   estimate of the value. Describe the entire instrument.... serial number   
   inside the rim...type of tone ring etc. Frank will ask what he needs to know   
   to appraise the instrument. He is honest and trustworthy and you can trust   
   his judgement.   
      
   Hope this helps.
