Scotty Wiseman and his Granada
The cover
of this 1937 Lulu Belle and Scotty songbook shows Scotty Wiseman with his
five-string flathead Granada, which
has long been believed to be the one now owned by
Sonny
Osborne. New research into Gibson's prewar shipping
records, however, show that Wiseman's
Granada was a different banjo
and its current whereabouts are unknown. Lulu Belle is sporting a very nice Martin
000-18 (or possibly OM-18).
