Here is a 1930’s Gibson Kalamazoo tenor banjo.
It is in very good condition!
Rim thickness in .635 top to bottom (just over 5/8”) and is solid with no delaminations.
All hardware looks to be prewar original.
It did not come with it’s original tailpiece so I added a prewar windowpane missing the top cover.
It also has a solid pre epa 11” head on it and it is in great shape and up to 90 on drum dial.
I have seen many of these pre epa heads sell for 100.00 each and this one is in great shape just saying.
These little Kalamazoos make great sounding lightweight prewar banjers when converted with a 5 string neck and you have the cool sound of the 90 year old prewar wood rim and resonator.
Price is $675.00 plus actual shipping in USA Only
