Description
Here’s a vintage B&J Music Serenader parlor guitar.
Featuring a cool image of a cowboy with his guitar, this is a great, collectable guitar.
The image and top is in fair condition showing the remnants of a couple earlier repaired cracks and a some minor warping . The cracks seem to be stable but the glue/repairs are definitely visible.
But, overall, the guitar is in decent condition with no separations.
This collectable Serenader comes with a chipboard case.
A little about B&J Music: B & J, or Buegeleisen and Jacobson, was a musical instrument distributor based in New York City for most of the Twentieth Century. The company had instruments built for them by many of the factories that weāve become familiar with, Stromberg-Voisenet (later to become Kay), Espana and Regal. The Serenader name was used on a wide variety of guitars and equipment from the 1920ās right on into the 1960ās. Not much more is known about these instruments and dating them can be very difficult because most were catelog guitars and show no serial number.Ā B&J Music still exists as a music instrument distributor located in Toronto, Canada.
