1925 Gibson 5 String Banjo Conversion owned by Leon Redbone
This was converted some time in the 1960's or before with a replica neck. Banjo plays great, and the body is in excellent condition. Neck has a broken nut cover.
About LEON REDBONE
Redbone’s career has spanned over four decades and began with his earliest performances on the folk festival and club circuit. His numerous appearances on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson and Saturday Night Live and other outlets catalyzed his rise to international recognition. Over the ensuing years he has appeared throughout North America, Europe, Australia and Japan and released thirteen albums of his unique music, a panoply of early music styles that he delivered with his singular laconic idiosyncratic style.

A true champion of early American ragtime, blues and jazz, Leon Redbone has spent a lifetime preserving that musical tradition while exposing successive generations to a rich musical heritage of which they might not otherwise have become aware.

Authenticity
We will be offering a collection of Leon Redbone's guitars and all will come with a letter of authenticity from the estate.
