1930 Bacon & Day Style A Super Banjo Maple/
Banjo players are in for a real treat here: we’ve got a 1930 Bacon & Day Model A 5-string banjo in excellent condition just waiting to be played. Owned by David Holt, this banjo comes with a resonator back and has an incredibly clear and expressive voice. Outfitted with a new bridge, this banjo has a smooth setup and gorgeous MOP inlay across the Ebony headplate and Ebony fretboard. The Maple neck has a low profile that is easy on the hands.
Fred Bacon had been building banjos for several decades before David Day joined with him in 1922 to form the Bacon & Day Banjo Company, creating many fine banjos in a variety of sizes and style until Gretsch purchased the company from them in 1940.
These banjos are classics, the gold standard among vintage banjos.
