Paramount Style B Tenor Banjo (1920s) Walnut

A beautiful vintage Paramount Style B tenor banjo from the golden age of American banjo making.

This is a genuine Style B example featuring the original Paramount peghead inlays, walnut finish, engraved metalwork, resonator construction and period hard case with green plush interior.

I’ve owned and played many vintage tenor banjos and this is genuinely one of the easiest-playing Paramounts I’ve come across. The neck profile, action and overall setup make it an exceptionally comfortable instrument to play while retaining the powerful Paramount tone.
