The Banjovie
The 26-inch Banjovie is the world's only production mini banjo. This 5-string, open-back banjo features a one-piece solid all black walnut neck, which has been precision shaped and drilled on a computer-controlled machining center. This cutting-edge production method allows for precise fret placement, and consistent high quality with remarkably low cost. In addition, the Banjovie now sports all-geared tuners and the fifth string tuner is located on the peghead, allowing for a comfortable neck with unlimited tuning configurations. The fifth string is held on the fingerboard at the fifth fret (or whatever other fret you choose to spike) with a little railroad spike and conveniently hugs the side of the neck to the tuner.
The word that best describes the Banjovie is "FUN". The small, comfortable neck is remarkably easy to play and it puts out a surprising volume and catchy banjo tone. The natural looking fiber-skin head is mechanically fastened and permanently tight on the rim, requiring no adjustments at any time. It is suggested that you tune it to an open "C" chord, which is 5 frets higher than a standard banjo.
The Banjovie is the perfect beginner's banjo and is an ideal practice and travel instrument. Its affordable price makes it the perfect hands-on learning tool for educational and recreational purposes. It's tough, versatile and adaptable for kids and adults alike.
