The EBT is a unique T-style electric 5-string banjo, designed to deliver both traditional banjo response and the tonal flexibility of an electric instrument. Like its sibling, the EBM, it has a hollow sound chamber that produces an authentic banjo tone even when unplugged. Its tobacco sunburst flame maple top, paired with chrome hardware and cream binding, gives it a classic country-inspired look.
The dual pickup design includes a humbucker under the head (bridge position) and a single-coil pickup at the neck, with controls for quick tone and volume adjustments. With a solid mahogany body, ebony fretboard with snowflake inlays, and an 8" Remo head over an aluminum tone ring, the EBT blends banjo brightness with electric guitar-style versatility.
Best For
Stage performers, experimental banjoists, and crossover players seeking a banjo with traditional feel and electric adaptability. Perfect for country, folk-rock, and fusion styles.
