Heritage Cherry Burst/Flamed Maple. Piezo/EMG S - The dual pickup electric design preserves the banjo shape and sound while making a bold artistic statement. The cut-away circular body in combination with the protective and handy outer ring is unique and stylish. The instrument's soundboard is an original design made from a hybrid of exotic solid hardwood and Nechville's adjustable 6" head mounting system.
