Another of my Lightweight models, this maple and cherry banjo has all the standard features of the design; a turned flange to eliminate the L-Shoes, an integral wooden tone ring turned into the pot, an ebony wedge at the heel joint, an engraved pearl star, pearl position and side dots, 5-Star tuners, a Renaisance head, No-Knot tailpiece, Vega style arm-rest, handmade moon style bridge, exposed truss rod nut in the scoop, capo spike at the 7th fret, and a beautiful french polish finish. In addition, the neck has a center strip of cherry, walnut, and cherry and a beautiful walnut heel cap. These Lightweight banjos have a pure tone and good volume. They are very unique and great sounding instruments!
You can hear this banjo on Youtube playing Benton's Dream.
