Built from curly maple with a vintage finish, this resonator banjo pairs elegance with punch. Its 11\" 3-ply maple rim, 20-hole bell brass flat-top tone ring, and one-piece cast flange create a big, cutting sound that works beautifully for bluegrass, country, or stage performance. Premium touches set the OB-Grandee apart. The ebony fingerboard carries the iconic Hearts \u0026amp; Flowers inlay pattern, highlighted by the Mastertone name. Gold-engraved hardware, an engraved Grandee armrest, and a notched Grandee tension hoop bring a touch of luxury without sacrificing function. A Prucha clamshell tailpiece, Gotoh planetary tuners, and a Dotson 5\/8\" bridge ensure smooth playability and stable tuning. The resonator’s 14\" curly maple back delivers both projection and beauty, while dual coordinator rods provide rock-solid stability.

Built around an 11-inch 2-ply maple rim capped in ebonite and fitted with a vintage tone ring, it delivers a clear, warm response with plenty of projection for clawhammer, old-time, or melodic playing. The Renaissance head, OME maple bridge, and Harp tailpiece keep the sound focused and balanced across the range. A maple neck with an ebony-capped heel provides strength and stability, while the ebony fingerboard adds smooth playability. Mother-of-pearl inlay paired with tortoise-shell binding offers a touch of elegance without losing the instrument’s old-time character. The scale length stretches to 28.188 inches, giving this banjo a slightly longer reach and distinct tonal presence compared to more compact models. Practical features like dual OME adjustable coordinator rods, 17 nickel frets, and a dual-action truss rod ensure durability and precision setup over time. Aged brass hardware, Victorian headstock with amber button tuners, and walnut armrest complete the classic look.
