All original 1925 Gibson TB3 tenor banjo with case and additional 19 fret neck.  This banjo is in excellent condition and plays great setup for Irish trad. The rim is 3/4" thick 3 ply maple with a ball bearing tone rim.  The rim show barely any imperfections.  The resonator is also in great shape with only minor wear and scratching on the back.  It retains both the chalk and pencil FON numbers on the inside with also match the FON on the rim.  The metal hardware is all original and in excellent condition.  There is some wear and finish loss on some of the hooks.  It has a vintage 5 star head installed.  There is a replacement tailpiece on the banjo currently, but the original Presto is included in the sale.  I prefer the setup with the Waverly.  The armrest is also original.  It is missing the 4 original resonator screws. Necks - The original neck is 18 frets with a 20 3/4" scale length.  The neck was refretted and a light coat of french polish shellac was added to protect the original
