| Tenor banjo
A short scale
tenor banjo. 17 fret, string playing length 34cm. Fitted with an
11inch Remo Weatherking head. detachable resonator. A well made
early heavy tenor banjo, I would think circa 1915 when they were
sometimes known as tango banjos, the resonator probably being a
1920s addition. The ebony fingerboard and the frets are in good
shape. A fitted tone ring on top of the hoop. Plays nicely. A makers name is not apparent. Not
a banjolin (4 string mandolin banjo) £325
