c. 1915 Bacon Grand Concert

Price: $4,200.00 USD

Amazing early c. 1915 Bacon Professional - Grand Concert - FF Banjo!
Crafted in 1915, this Bacon Professional Grand Concert FF is a remarkable original five-string banjo from the famed Bacon Banjo Company. Bearing serial number 1115, it features an 11 modern renaissance head and a maple pot with an internal tone chamber / resonator , producing the warm, rich, and resonant tone that has made early Bacon banjos so highly regarded.
The neck, heel, and peghead adds both visual appeal and rarity to the instrument's construction. As expected of a banjo more than a century old, it shows honest signs of age; however this banjo has just been gone over and re-vamped by Chris Cockrum of Cockrum Studios ensuring maximum playability for modern times.

A true piece of American musical history, this banjo is equally suited for collectors and players who appreciate the craftsmanship and distinctive voice of early 20th-century instruments. Its wear only enhances its authenticity and enduring charm.

Fresh setup, with Cockrum bridge and Rickard tuners; plays and sounds exactly as it should!
