Flying to Mexico City from LAX?

Question

my uncle is taking a Mexicana flight tomorrow and he wants to take a carry-on bag, luggage that goes under, and he wants to take a banjo he bought with him in the plane. i was wondering if he will be able to take the banjo (it's in a case) and his carry on bag on board with him

i have tried calling Mexicana and LAX several times, but they only have automated messages and there's no way for me to speak to a real person.

thanks.

I found this page below...does not look like he can take it unless it fits in his suitcase.  Otherwise he would need to pay extra for it.  Maybe if you get a soft-hearted person at Mexicana!  Someone should go with him to the airport when he checks in just in case he needs to send it back with them to keep for him.
