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.
The tone of this vintage Bacon & Day is crisp and powerful; perfect for G Modal tunings. 
I really enjoyed seeing this old banjo and playing it. It's beautifully inlaid and it has that great vintage feel. The tone is bright and clear and the action is low. I believe in David Holt's taste in banjos here: you can't go wrong. | Scale Length | 26.25 in |
