Those May Bell pot and resonator are among the best ones I have work with. They can be transform from open back to resonator banjo in a few seconds. The Silver Bell Tone ring is powerful and deliver a loud and punchy sound with a good balance great for Bluegrass and many other type of music like Jazz and folk. I made one of those a few years ago ( No.1181-4) and it was a great banjo so I did it again. Circa 1920 , 10 3/4 inches MAY BELL banjo rim and hardware in excellent condition. All the original hardware including the tension hooks have been newly re plated with nickel.
Banjo weight is 9 3/4 pounds. Plated second Life banjo 1235-4 |
