{"product_id":"gibson-ub-1-banjo-ukulele-1928-5726","title":"Gibson UB-1 Banjo Ukulele (1928)","description":"Gibson UB-1 Model Banjo Ukulele, c. 1928, made in Kalamazoo, Michigan, brown lacquer finish, laminated maple rim, maple neck with ebonized fingerboard. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis model is one of our perennial favorites! Although the dimunitive 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 RPM disc�perfect for bringing closet flappers out of the woodwork! Fun, extremely playable and awful darn 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.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 12 1\/2 in. (318 mm.). Width of nut is 1 1\/4 in. (32 mm.). Very clean overall, all original except newer bridge. The head is covered with rather whimsical 1920's graffitti related to someone's 1920's college dorm adventures. Sounds and plays excellent. Overall Excellent Condition.","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46852975165580,"sku":"5726","price":650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/8702\/3756\/files\/01_31023682-e68e-4c19-a98b-4815c1041aaa.jpg?v=1774329190","url":"https:\/\/retrofret.com\/products\/gibson-ub-1-banjo-ukulele-1928-5726","provider":"RetroFret","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
