Product Description
The Fender PB-180E Banjo features a classic bolt-on construction, giving a snappy, twangy tone. The Remo Fiberskyn head provides a warm, full-range tone with outstanding definition and enhanced mid and low-range resonance, as well as being highly durable. The Mahogany body and neck offer a midrange tone that compliments the head. The satin finished C shape neck feels incredibly comfortable in the hand and effortlessly smooth to play.
With a Maple and Ebony bridge, traditional Banjo tailpiece and bone nut, the instrument has excellent sustain and rock solid tuning stability. The maket leading Fishman Implant Banjo pickup system allows you the flexibility to amplify the instrument, whilst retaining all of the tone and dynamics.
