That's a Plectrum Banjo-a Bacon and Day Silver Bell-4 string banjo- circa about 1920 - few left today= more popular in europe , japan, etc today--5 string bluegrass banjo is mot popular in the USA- Tenor is the other forgotten 4 string banjo-shorter neck, a lot of single string strumming opposed to the plectrums use of chords and shading. Look up Eddy Peabody banjo, Scotty Plumber for the best pPecrrum players -about 10x fancier than this good, mediocre player.
@johnnyjet33030 It's a "tenor" B & D Serenader Silverbell. The odd look was from the sloped flange with the "f" hole purfs. And you're re ight. It's from tthhe mid too late 20's.
Is hard to beliave that a very young John Lennon just to play this when he was with Pauly and they play as the Nerk Twins...A Beatlestory¡¡¡

Del Casher plays good, clean plectrum here-he is one of the best guitar players ever. Still playing nowadays.
