This one (serial 018) has been substantially discounted due to a lacquer blemish on the 5th-string side of the neck. It can be touched up in our shop, if the buyer wishes.
The Soloist has all the outstanding features of the Professional mahogany model, but with a beautiful flamed maple resonator and figured neck. It also features a glorious sunburst finish for a classic, woodsy look.
This resonator banjo combines classic pre-war style features and desirable modern touches to create the ultimate bluegrass banjo. This model features a flamed maple resonator, figured maple neck, bound ebony fretboard, American Standard thread hardware, 20-hole tone ring and a 3-ply rim. Designed by Greg Rich, this model recalls the most supremely crafted banjos from the Golden Age of musical instruments.
The RK-R87-SN features genuine gold-plated hardware -- a true vintage appointment. The Soloist also features the traditional Recording King floral peghead and inlay and an authentic Mastertone-style flange. With its exceptional tone and handcrafted perfection, this banjo will appeal to players as well as collectors.
Note: Our banjos are individually inspected, set up and tuned by the banjo.com staff in Georgia. We are banjo players, so we set them up the way we want to play them! Each banjo is in tune when we carefully pack it for shipment. Climate conditions and travel will affect the tuning, so it may need to be fine-tuned before playing. |
