Clifford Essex Paragon
Serial #2. A historical example of this much-loved banjo. These very early models had no flange and a close-fitting resonator, the peghead binding associated with later models is also absent. Interestingly, it is fitted with Page figure 8 tuners. Stunning condition with original case. £5000
