Sonny Smith and Washburn Guitars have collaborated to create his signature banjo the B160. His model has been given a wider fretboard to accommodate bigger fingers, the 5th string nut had been moved between the 5th and 6th fret for improved tone, sustain and intonation. Currently, Sonny is spending his stage time in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains at Dolly Parton’s Dollywood. You can catch Sonny playing his B-160 in the Smoky Mountain String Band, during regular Dollywood operating season hours.
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. |
