Description
The Barnes & Mullins Rathbone 5-String Banjo Electro blends classic bluegrass tone with stage-ready electronics for players who need acoustic warmth and amplified presence. A mahogany resonator, mahogany rim and neck paired with a black Remo WeatherKing head produce a rich, responsive voice, while the rolled brass tone ring and maple bridge with an ovangkol tip deliver clarity and projection. Built for live use, the Rathbone includes a humbucking pickup with onboard electronics, 1/4" jack and volume control so it plugs straight into amps or PA systems without losing character. Comfortable ovangkol fingerboard, 22 frets, planetary machineheads and chrome hardware complete a polished, reliable instrument for bluegrass, country, folk, jazz and band settings.
