(NOS) Dogwood Banjos, built by our good friend Mike Chew, remind us how much love can go into a hand-made instrument. Dogwood open-backs have a very satisfying mix of rustic aesthetics and fine details for the wood-obsessed.
This walnut 11" model has a nice deep pot, inspired by the work of the great Chuck Lee. The neck is walnut with a wenge center strip, and the scale length is 25 1/2". Aged brass hardware with matching gold tuners with ebony knobs. Tone-rim construction.
This banjo has a good amount of pluck but also a sweetness of tone. Very pleasing for clawhammer and old time. Price includes soft case.
Being sold as New Old Stock (NOS) with no warranty.
