    Description

    Here we have an original ~ VINTAGE VEGAPHONE PROFESSIONAL TENOR BANJO WITH ORIGINAL HARD SHELL CASE ~ we just acquired out of an estate. This banjo came from the original owner's estate and they told us it was their Grandfather's banjo. The condition is really quite nice as you can see. I would think it is most likely one of the nicest examples out there. It was obviously very well cared for over all these decades and has been tucked away for quite some time. This is just the way it looked when we opened the case and we did not attempt to clean, polish or do a thing to it. It has all of it's original Grover tuners. The banjo measures approximately 33 1/2 inches long with about an 11 inch pot and the resonator is approximately 13 1/2 inches across. It really is a beautiful Vintage instrument! The original hard shell case does show some expected signs of wear and is missing the handle. All in all, it is actually in fairly nice condition considering it is around 90 years old.
