I am thinking slingerland or washburn but the tone ring looks like a bacon ? it is 10 5/8 " pot Thoughts?

It has a rogers skin head? no stamp on the dowel stick. The neck seems better than a slingerland and the fret board overlapps the head unlike a slingerland? I don't remember where I got it and have had it for several years. I was going to re neck it unless someone wanted it as a tenor.

What is the width of the head?

The shape of the peghead looks like something that the Lange company might have made.
Just a guess. Good luck with it!

The head is 10 5/8 just a shade over 10 1/2

The hardware also looks like Lange. Does it have a Little Wonder style tone ring?

The the ring looks like a bacon style which extends into the sound chamber resembling a small donut shape . It can be seen in the picture of the inside of the pot

Sorry I forgot to take a picture of it

sorry but this is the correct picture of the pot in question

also the edge of the flesh hoop is lower than the top unlike a slingerland ? this one's a tuff call? I believe I took it on trade years ago thinking it was a lyon and healy of some sort.
