{"product_id":"harmony-fender-tenor-banjo-1968-7165","title":"Harmony Fender Tenor Banjo (1968)","description":"Fender Model Tenor Banjo, made by Harmony, c. 1968, made in Chicago, black and white two-tone finish, Bakelite rim, plastic resonator; maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, original black chipboard case. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a forgotten bit of Fender history-a Harmony Bakelite rim banjo built expressly for CBS, complete with the Fender logo engraved in the headstock. Some other unique features include Fender safti-slot tuning pegs (with the \"F\" logo) and a white molded plastic resonator-Harmony usually used black. Not in the books but here it is, a tuxedoed ghost of the company's CBS era, when they tried to offer every instrument they could under the Fender brand.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOverall length is 34 in. (86.4 cm.), 11 in. (27.9 cm.) diameter head, and 3 1\/4 in. (8.3 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 22 3\/4 in. (578 mm.). Width of nut is 1 3\/16 in. (30 mm.). All original, shows very little wear, a few small chips to the finish but basically appears hardly played. The laminated plastic headstock veneer is shrinking off the wood slightly. An interesting Fender oddity and still a good student tenor-considering it's mostly made of plastic, it actually sounds pretty good. Excellent Condition.","brand":"Harmony","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46853010194572,"sku":"7165","price":350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/retrofret.com\/products\/harmony-fender-tenor-banjo-1968-7165","provider":"RetroFret","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
