Introduced in 2016, the EB-5 delivers a powerful onstage presence with a unique solid-body design tailored for amplified performance. Its 8" Remo pre-tuned head (PTS) generates authentic banjo tone while eliminating the need for re-tensioning, ensuring consistent tone and tuning stability.
The contour-carved mahogany body paired with a Canadian maple neck creates excellent balance and comfort, even during long sets. A stacked humbucker pickup offers high feedback resistance, making this banjo perfect for live use, while the heavy-duty Terminator tailpiece accepts both ball-end and loop-end strings for flexibility. With its sleek satin finish and road-ready construction, the EB-5 is built for both banjoists and crossover players exploring electrified banjo sounds. Available in a left-handed model.
Best For
Stage performers, electric banjo enthusiasts, and experimental players seeking a durable, feedback-resistant instrument for amplified music across genres.
