OME Juniper Banjo

Experience the pinnacle of banjo artistry with the OME Juniper, a boutique open-back banjo meticulously crafted for discerning players who demand both sonic excellence and visual elegance. Blending traditional aesthetics with thoughtful modern design, the Juniper offers outstanding playability and a voice that inspires.

The neck is available in your choice of Walnut for warmth or Maple for brightness and snap. Each is beautifully crafted and finished for smooth playability. Intricate custom abalone inlays elevate the instrument’s visual appeal, while precision Rickard Cyclone 10:1 tuners provide flawless tuning stability.

Designed for clawhammer tradition, the sculpted S-curve scoop allows effortless access for expressive frailing and nuanced technique, seamlessly integrated into the ebony fingerboard.

At the tonal core, choose your head type:

• Renaissance for a warm, mellow voice

• Fiberskyn for a more traditional, old-time character

Paired with a rolled brass tone ring, the Juniper achieves a perfect balance of warmth, clarity, and projection.

The rim can be built from either Cherry (clear, bright response) or Walnut (deeper warmth), each supported by OME’s robust rim-stick coordinator rod system for exceptional stability and resonance.

Finally, select your hardware finish:

• Aged Brass for vintage character

• Nickel for a sleek, polished look
