One of the best Tubaphone banjos we’ve ever had in our shop! The sound is truly phenomenal, the craftsmanship is superb, and the Vega-inspired design is beautiful and elegant!
This Mark Platen instrument from the ’80s/’90s is truly impressive: beautiful curly maple and engraved hardware, plus Vega-style mother-of-pearl neck inlays. The instrument has been refretted with EVO gold frets, the nut has been replaced with a new bone one, railroad spikes are installed from the 6th to the 14th fret, and the strings are new.
Length 95 cm, scale length 66.5 cm, nut width 31 mm, head size 11"
The instrument is in very good condition; there are no visible cracks or restorations. Very slight signs of age and wear, as well as minimal patina on the hardware.
It’s really fun to play this banjo! It comes in a beautiful Tweet case.
