{"product_id":"bacon-style-1-banjo-ukulele-1928-2589","title":"Bacon Style # 1 Banjo Ukulele (1928)","description":"Bacon Style # 1 Model Banjo Ukulele (1928), made in Groton CT, natural lacquer finish, mahogany neck and rim, black tolex chipboard case. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese little mahogany Bacons are one of our favorite banjo-ukes, and possibly the best sounding openbacks ever made. All mahogany construction with high-grade nickel-plated hardware; headstock has inlaid celluloid \"Bacon\" script logo. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis was the least expensive instrument made by Bacon\/B\u0026amp;D, but is still of much higher quality than most banjo-ukes.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOverall length is 22 1\/16 in. (56 cm.), 8 in. (20.3 cm.) diameter head, and 2 1\/2 in. (6.4 cm.) deep. Scale length is 14 in. (356 mm.). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLooks original except possibly the tailpiece, which is a period \"Bell Brand\". Some general finish wear, but overall very attractive. Some hooks and hardware are not perfectly matched but hardly noticeable. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlays and sounds excellent. Period (original?) heavy chipboard case has an unfortunate overlay of duct tape, but is fully functional. Very Good + Condition.","brand":"Bacon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46853096505484,"sku":"2589","price":375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/8702\/3756\/files\/01_4751c5cc-1a49-48fd-93c3-ee4521d7e415.jpg?v=1774331407","url":"https:\/\/retrofret.com\/products\/bacon-style-1-banjo-ukulele-1928-2589","provider":"RetroFret","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
