Index Maker Model Year Cond Price Note 5189 Lange [unlabeled] 5-String Banjo ca 1915 Exc & Orig $1295 Figured maple neck & rim, floral fingerboard inlays, modern planetary pegs NOTES ON ORPHEUM BANJOS by Bill Reese In about 1897, two New York instrument makers, Lange and Rettberg, bought the J. Buckbee banjo factory. Buckbee of New York had been the banjo maker for many famous players, among them Farland, Foote, Converse, Bruno, Mather, H.

Dobson and G.C. Dobson and produced banjos with the names of these performers as the manufacturer. Indeed, Buckbee had been the largest of the post-war banjo manufacturers and produced both handmade and mass produced instruments. Why they sold out to Rettberg and Lange remains a mystery. No banjos with the Buckbee name on the instrument seem to have been made, or if so, none have survived.

(nb: 'JHB' stamped on the dowel stick is one of the known markings of Buckbee -WJB) R & L continued to make banjos for these performers, as well as a line of their own.

Farmer was granted a patent, # 724833, for a tone ring which sits on brackets which are attached to the rim. This is the tone ring that was used on all Orpheum banjos by R & L and which gives the Orpheums their distinctive sound.
