Here it is, folks—the elusive Bacon & Day Silver Bell Ne Plus Ultra No. 6.
This extraordinary banjo features a fierce lion carved into its solid ebony neck, genuine elephant-ivory inlays engraved and scrimshawed by hand, and elaborate engraving throughout its metalwork.
Most remarkably, it has never been restored—not even replated. It remains completely and totally original, making it one of the finest surviving examples of one of the greatest tenor banjos ever built.
The ebony-neck Ne Plus Ultra No. 6 is widely considered the ultimate achievement of Jazz Age banjo making. Powerful, elegant, and exceptionally versatile, this instrument is equally at home playing traditional jazz, Irish music, or virtually anything else you ask of it.
This is the stuff dreams are made of—the ultimate and final word in tenor banjos—and it is being offered at a very fair, considerably low price.
Now is the time to buy. Do not hesitate.
No repairs. No issues. No excuses.
Make it yours.
