The 12" Irish Tenor Banjo has quickly gained popularity in Ireland and beyond, thanks to its increased volume, extended bass tonal range, and Celtic-inspired detailing. Built with a 12" maple rim and rolled brass tone ring, it delivers a rich, resonant low end and clear, ringing highs, perfect for traditional Irish and Celtic music sessions.
The rosewood fingerboard with clover inlay adds both playability and visual charm, while the maple neck ensures durability and stability. Equipped with GT Master planetary tuners and a No Knot tailpiece, this banjo offers precise tuning and authentic old-world style. A curly maple armrest adds comfort for long sessions, and the instrument comes professionally set up and ready to play.
