Paramount Style "A" 19 Fret Tenor Banjo (1928) Type_ Instructional - Banjo and Overdrive controlsLovely Paramount Style "A" from William Lange in 1928 (No. 10152) in the midst of his best production. The banjo is in very good playing condition with a straight neck and comfortable action recently set up with new Fiberskyn head and new Maple bridge. The instrument appears otherwise all original. There are a few small marks or scratches but overall for an instrument that is almost a century old, it is remarkably preserved with the metal parts nicely
