Product Description

PARAMOUNT TENOR BANJO CIRCA 1925. Cataloged as a Tenor Harp, It is simply a banjo constructed like a guitar. It has a solid spruce top on mahogany sides and back. Hence, there isn't a skin head, metal frame, or tension lugs. This results in a very light weight instrument with a warm and mellow tone! The rosewood (Brazilian? ) fingerboard and frets do not show any wear. And the mahogany neck is very straight. The banjo is very ornate with plenty of inlays. The rosewood bridge is original. The head is 10 3/4" in diameter. The resonator is just under 13" in diameter and is 1 3/8" deep. The rim is 2 1/8" deep. The instrument measures 32 1/2" end to end. The body is stamped Patent Pending and the serial # is 132. The banjo does need some TLC. as there is a narrow split in the grain on top and also in the binding on the back. The original geared tuners have been replaced with friction pegs. There are some wear marks in the finish on the back of the neck, but they do not interfere with the playing, nor do the look nearly as bad as in the photo. The top appears to have been lightly over-sprayed at one time. There is no case. This is a unique instrument, fun to play, and sure to be a conversation piece. Definitely something very different for your collection .
