Banjo Richwood RMB-904

Richwood RMB-904

The banjo is a four-, five-, or six-stringed instrument with a thin membrane stretched over a frame or cavity as a resonator, called the head, which is typically circular. The membrane is typically made of plastic, although animal skin is still occasionally used. Early forms of the instrument were fashioned by Africans in the United States, adapted from African instruments of similar design.

Richwood guitar company have been making guitars and other musical instruments since 1979. Only the finest quality tonewood are selected to make Richwood musical instruments.

900 series 19 fret tenor banjo. Improved stability and tone thanks to the aluminium rim, ebony fingerboard and more elaborate inlay lift this banjo above any other banjo in its pricerange. The typical playing style of a tenor banjo is with a plectrum, but of course we encourage you to explore all techniques on this instrument. This 19 fret, longer scale version has a tight and focussed sound as opposed to the mellower and sweeter sound of the 17 fret version, the RMB-904-SS. As with all Master Series banjos the RMB-904 is a very stable instrument with 24 brackets, quality wood and parts, ensuring a lifetime of musical pleasure.
