Five steel strings and a geared fifth-string peg put this banjo squarely in bluegrass and folk territory, where that short drone string carries much of the character. Twenty-four brackets ring the Remo drum head and each one tightens or slackens on its own, so the head can be brought to pitch by the player instead of arriving fixed. The panel is wood with sapele back and sides over a plywood frame, the fingerboard is Maqiao rosewood, and the mid-range closed handle keeps the neck comfortable through long chord changes. Measuring 13.5 by 4 by 39 inches and weighing 6 pounds, it travels in the fitted case supplied with it, so lessons and jam sessions do not start with a hunt for a bag.
