A question about dismantling a banjo?

Question

I'm visiting morroco this summer and I just bought a banjo for my friend, I have a pretty good size piece of luggage and my plan is to dismantle the instrument and chove it nicely between my clothes inside. Will it be hard to put it back together later
? is this gonna affect the playability of the instrument?

Answer 1

yes, it will. I hope you have some musical background . It will have to be tuned, you know all the little pegs around the head.
Of course, if you just take off the neck, and re-string it later, you will just have to tune the strings.
Your best bet would be to carry it on.
