goldExperience the unparalleled craftsmanship and resonant voice of the Heirloom Irish Tenor Banjo, proudly handcrafted in America. Built with the finest select woods and hardware, this instrument is not just a banjo—it’s an heirloom designed to inspire generations of players.
From the elegant mahogany headstock adorned with luminous Mother of Pearl and ebony accents, to the precision of Rickard Cyclone brass tuners, every feature reflects a commitment to artistry and excellence.
At its heart, a 12" rim paired with a rolled brass tone ring produces a bright, clear, and punchy voice—perfectly tailored for the fast melodies and driving rhythms of traditional Irish music. Players can also choose their preferred head type for tonal character:
-
Renaissance for a warm, responsive sound
-
Fiberskyn for a more traditional, old-time feel
Comfort meets design with a hand-sculpted armrest crafted from your chosen tonewood, ensuring effortless playability for long sessions. The ebony fingerboard with Mother of Pearl inlays adds a stunning visual flourish and smooth playing experience.
