This Bart Reiter Standard Fretless Banjo is super cool. Here with the incredible build quality and no frills aesthetic that we like so much from Bart, this five-string has a smooth, scooped, fretless Ebony fingerboard. The result is a tonally unique banjo that is great to play.
Loaded with a wonderful, warm tone, it has a rolled brass tone ring for a little extra volume and punch. It has an 11" diameter rim, Mahogany neck, and a satin lacquer finish. Made in Michigan, this Bart Reiter Standard Fretless Banjo will not disappoint. Case not included, but throw in a Banjo hard case for just a bit more.

This beautiful Bart Reiter Regent Banjo is a wonderful open-back, with some nice detailing including a new tortoise style binding on the inner rim edge which really compliments the Rosewood trim on the outer rim. This Whyte Laydie tone ring, a frosted 11" head, and Maple neck with an Ebony fretboard. They've added a star on the fingerboard at the 5th tuner as well. Great sound, plus this Bart Reiter Regent Banjo has a really nice elegance to it without going overboard.
