I call these banjos a poor man's prewar flathead! They are as close as I will ever come to owning a prewar flathead....
They are light and good on an old man's back.
I have just put together another really nice 1928 prewar TB1 Gibson pot and cut rim and added one of Arnold Clayton's pyramid rings.
This will make a killer banjer with the addition of a 5 string neck.
Another gentleman has shot at his but if he declines it will be coming to the hangout!
Later,
Don Bryant in NC
