Cap't Bob Tech: Orpheum tenor banjo info. (8) Tech: Orpheum tenor banjo info. 01 Jul 07


A friend just purchased an Orpheum Tenor banjo for $100. (I'm never in the right place at the right time). It is in perfect condition, all original with case etc. Markings on the peg head indicate a #3 special.    It has a lot of fancy inlay, pearl etc. I did find a homepage:

Any idea about what this banjo may be worth or other information about this make of banjo. Can't seem to find any for sale on the internet. I doubt it he would sell although he has been looking for a Gibson 5 string.
I do have the honor of setting it up and playing it for a while.
