Although the UB-1 (retailing originally at $10.00!) was the least expensive instrument Gibson ever offered, they are still very well-made and have a specific tone all to themselves�rather like the sound is already coming off of a 78 disc! This one is particularly loud and bright�perfect for bring closet flappers out of the woodwork! Fun, extremely playable, and awful durn cute.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOverall length is 19 3\/4 in. (50.2 cm.), 6 in. (15.2 cm.) diameter head, and 3 in. (7.6 cm.) deep. Scale length is 12 1\/2 in. (318 mm.). Width of nut is 1 1\/4 in. (32 mm.). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll original and overall excellent with some light plating loss to the tailpiece and hooks. There is one chip out of the back edge of the headstock on the treble side, otherwise no damage and only minor wear. Plays and sounds extremely well.","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46853199036556,"sku":"3272","price":550.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/8702\/3756\/files\/01_49aaed6d-0ad8-49d9-b981-e50731e42e95.jpg?v=1774331851","url":"https:\/\/retrofret.com\/products\/gibson-ub-1-banjo-ukulele-1928-3272","provider":"RetroFret","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
