That pairing gives it a rich, punchy midrange with clear note separation, and the maple resonator adds depth and volume so the banjo projects without turning harsh.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRolls come out even and crisp, with enough bark in the midrange to cut through a bluegrass jam and enough bass and treble balance to sit nicely under a vocal or in a band mix. The quartersawn maple neck has a slender D shape that feels fast up and down the A-grade ebony fingerboard, and the 1 1\/4\" nut width keeps Scruggs-style picking and melodic runs comfortable. It also has the warmth to handle clawhammer when you want a softer touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe custom dark \"Eagle Red\" stain and high-gloss finish on the neck and resonator, the original engraved Eagle inlays and the nickel hardware give it a look that matches its tone. Deering planetary tuners and a Gotoh geared 5th-string tuner hold pitch through a set, and it ships in a hardshell case. This Eagle II also has spikes installed at frets 7, 8, 9 and 10, so you can capo the 5th string in a second without a sliding capo in the way. For players stepping up to a professional resonator banjo that handles stage, studio and front-porch picking equally well, the Eagle II earns its place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSerial #2327 — this listing is for the exact instrument shown in the photos above.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eModel: EII\u003cbr\u003eBanjo Style: Resonator\u003cbr\u003eString Count: 5\u003cbr\u003eString Type: Steel\u003cbr\u003eNeck Wood: Quartersawn Maple\u003cbr\u003eNeck Profile: Slender \"D\" Shape\u003cbr\u003eNeck Finish: High Gloss\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Material: A Grade Ebony\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Inlay: Original Eagle Engraved Inlays\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Frets: 22\u003cbr\u003eFret Material: Nickel Silver\u003cbr\u003eNut Width: 1 1\/4\"\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 26 1\/4\"\u003cbr\u003eTuners: Deering Planetary Banjo Tuners, Deering Gotoh Geared 5th String Tuner\u003cbr\u003eRim: 3-Ply Violin Grade Maple\u003cbr\u003eRim Diameter: 11\"\u003cbr\u003eTone Ring: Deering Patented Twenty-Ten Tone Ring\u003cbr\u003eHead Material: Frosted\u003cbr\u003eTension Hoop: Notched Brass Tension Hoop\u003cbr\u003eHooks \u0026amp; Nuts: 24 Round J-Hooks and 1\/4\" Hex Nuts\u003cbr\u003eFlange: 2 Piece Eagle Series Flange\u003cbr\u003eArmrest: Deering Armrest\u003cbr\u003eBridge: 5\/8\" Deering Smile Bridge\u003cbr\u003eTailpiece: Deering True Tone Tailpiece\u003cbr\u003eHardware Color: Nickel\u003cbr\u003eResonator Wood: Maple\u003cbr\u003eResonator Diameter: 13 7\/8\"\u003cbr\u003eFinish Type: High Gloss\u003cbr\u003eColor\/Appearance: Eagle Red\u003cbr\u003eStrings Included: Deering Light Gauge Strings\u003cbr\u003eCase \/ Gig Bag: Hardshell Case\u003cbr\u003eLeft-\/Right-Handed: Right-Handed\u003cbr\u003e5th String Spikes: Installed at Frets 7, 8, 9 \u0026amp; 10\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhy Choose The Acoustic Shoppe?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen you choose to purchase from us, you're not just making a transaction; you're investing in an exceptional experience.
