Own a piece of history with this one of a kind banjo that survived the wrath of the most powerful atlantic hurricane on record! The Wilma Banjo (manufactured by Del Canto) was housed in Palm Beach county, Florida when the deadly storm savaged the west coast of Florida then steamrolled its way to the east coast by way of Palm Beach leaving unprecidented power outages and structural damage to thousands of homes. Sadly, many instruments didn't make it.

The Wilma Banjo barely survived the killer hurricane and lives to tell the story.

YOU could be the lucky owner of this soon to be famous American instrument.

The tunes it could play....

The tales it could tell....

The misery and woe it could recount...

The excitement and valor of this magnificent banjo is but a few finger picks away.

Do YOU have the courage to tune up and pick this amazing bard? Have you the intestinal fortitude to unlock that fateful day hurricane Wilma forever effected southern Florida?

The Wilma Banjo is a storm waiting to be unleashed...the question is: Can You Handle It?

Comes with certificate of authenticity.

See photos of the havouc The Wilma Banjo endured.

10% of the selling price will be donated to the American Red Cross
