This was a custom order, built with a prewar Gibson 40-hole archtop tone ring. Maple wood, with cocobolo binding. It obviously was played very little; other than light wear on the first few frets, it is in practically new condition. This is a powerful and great sounding banjo, with looks to match!

1931 Gibson Recording King. This banjo had style 6 inlay, maple wood, and a 40-hole tone ring. It was priced about the same as a Granada, but is many times rarer. Gold plated with an engraved tension hoop and armrest. The neck has the Florentine Special inlay; it has fancy binding but doesn’t match the resonator. I bought this banjo more than twenty years ago, and have never had an archtop that I thought sounded better. Click here for pictures
The new TH Custom Nechville Phantom banjo has been very popular, so we decided to have an openback built using the same inlay design and walnut wood. Nechville is at least eight months behind on production, so if you are interested in purchasing one, give us a call. This one has an 11" pot; we are expecting one with a 12" pot soon. click here for pictures
This banjo has a new Richie Dotson neck with Reno inlay, and Richie also installed one of his new flathead tone rings, and it will hold its own with any banjo. The metal parts are exceptionally nice, with a virtually flat flange. If you've been looking for a prewar Gibson, this just might be the one. Click here for pictures
