Perfectly executed conversion from Kevin Enoch, completed in 2017, utilizing an original 10-3/4" diameter 1920 Fairbanks-Vega Style M Tubaphone rim assembly, with custom curly maple neck in the style of a Whyte Laydie No. 2 from Fairbanks' finest period. The maple rim assembly has an old Rogers skin head, original neck hardware, perforated Tubaphone tonering, notched tension hoop, Vega stamped armrest, closed end nuts, with original dowel stick retained from four string neck; some light tarnish, scratches present on metal parts. The 25.5" scale three piece neck is of gorgeous flamed maple, with a fully bound ebony fingerboard with tapered frailing scoop, delicate engraved pearl inlay including a star and scalloped diamonds, with engraved gryphon inlaid into the ebony peghead overlay, 1-5/16" wide bone nut, equipped with Gotoh geared tuners with ivoroid buttons; spikes present 7-10. An exceptional player, with low action and setup with an 11/16" Bart Reiter solid maple bridge; tone is pure Tubaphone but more focused than usual.
