1932 Gibson Style 3 One Flange

---

Style 3 the least expensive model in Gibson’s prewar Mastertone line, was revamped in 1929.  The model’s straight-grained maple changed to mahogany, two concentric rings of white/black/white purfling were added to the back of the resonator, the brass tube-and-plate flange was replaced by a one-piece cast metal flange, and the headstock shape and inlay patterns also changed. This tenor banjo is in excellent condition and would make a dream banjo for the bluegrass player once converted. 

This banjo is in superb condition, it's unbelievable! It did arrive here with a broken neck, and that has been since repaired.
