2 LEGACY LEGACY Originally started as a banjo manufacturer in the late 1800 s in New York City, Orpheum was considered by many to offer the highest quality premier banjos at the time. Weathering the Great Depression, two World Wars, and developing contemporary instruments like archtops and electric guitars, Orpheum contributed to the romance period of American musical history. In the late 60 s, Orpheum faded away into obscurity. Under the direction of the Tacoma Guitar Co., Orpheum has been resurrected with the intent of preserving a wonderful legacy of high quality banjos, as well as creating other traditional instruments. Orpheum Banjos, Mandolins and Resonator Guitars reflect the marvelous tradition of the original Orpheum company, while offering a series of high quality instruments that allow you to honor your musical traditions, or to create new ones of your own.
