H E R E ' S r o o m in
every Music Mer-
chant's stock for a
banjo like this.
Good-looking! U p - t o - d a t e !
And priced to please that vast
army of average purses who
don't need and can't afford a
$100.00 concert instrument.
But don't get the idea that this is just
a piece of merchandise produced to
sell at a price. It isn't!
It's a real musical instrument. The
scale is faultless. The tone is big and
full, intensified to real brilliance by
an extension resonator of strictly
modern type. We've built it hand-
somely—the best of materials, the
finest of finish. It looks good and IS
good!
Genuine Mahogany!
THE RIM is Genuine Mahogany, 5-
ply laminated construction. Finished
in natural brown mahogany color.
Satin hand rubbed finish. Sixteen
professional cast brackets, and groov-
ed straining hoop. Selected white
calf-skin head.
Also made in Regulation 5-String
Banjo and Banjo-Mandolin models at <
the same price.
THE RESONATOR is Genuine Ma-
hogany, laminated construction. Ex-
tension, detachable, o p e n t y p e .
Natural brown mahogany color, dull
satin rubbed.
THE NECK is 3-piece rock-maple, in
shaded brown mahogany finish. Ebony
reinforcing strip through center
makes it warp-proof!
Has ebony
heel, headpiece and fingerboard, pearl
inlaid. Regulation, full-sized patent
pegs with ivory-celluloid buttons.
You'll be setting new standards of
value in your town if you are the first
with the new Gretsch "Twenty-Five" !
It looks and plays like twice the price.
