1900 Washburn Style E Plectrum Banjo – Serial No. 131

A wonderful early example from the turn of the century, this 1900 Washburn Style E plectrum banjo (Serial #131) is a beautifully preserved piece of American banjo history.

It remains original throughout, with the exception of one replaced hook and nut. The original friction tuners are intact, and the banjo features a traditional skin head and a recent professional setup.

The result is exactly what you’d hope for from a banjo of this era—warm, articulate, and incredibly responsive. It plays effortlessly and truly sounds like a dream.

For collectors and players alike, early Washburn instruments in this condition are becoming increasingly hard to find.
