Hey guys.
I recently acquired an early Gibson tenor banjo that I am bringing back to life and hope someone can help with a few questions.
1st question is what exact year do you think this is? Stamped serial number is 11213A-22.
2nd question - I can see it has the four holes in the back for where there was at one point the trap-door resonator. Is it possible to find these anywhere? I would eventually like to add this piece to it but think it might be like trying to find the Holy Grail.
3rd question - There are about 4 hook and nut pieces that don't match the others. Where do you recommend buying some other than Amazon? I'd like to keep it as close to original as possible. Or should I just buy a whole new set? They appear to be 3.54 mm thick and 2 3/8 long.
Thanks for any help or advice.
