This Recording King Madison 6-String Resonator Banjo is perfect for guitarists who need a true, authentic banjo-sound with a familiar feel. This is well-built with a Maple resonator, tube and plate style 2-piece flange, and dual coordinator rods. It also takes a nod from Recording King's guitar line—the Maple neck has an adjustable truss rod, plus you've got a full 25.4” dreadnought scale length. The 1 11/16" nut width allows for comfortable banjo picking, but is still narrow enough to fret chords comfortably. The bone nut and Maple/Ebony bridge help deliver the percussive sound banjo players love. This Madison is finished off with quality Grover butterbean tuners, classic nickel-plated hardware and a hand-rubbed satin finish. This Recording King Madison 6-String Banjo not only delivers the sound you're after, but it's a heck of a lot of fun to play.
