This light weight openback banjo features a tunneled 5th string - all 5 strings tune at the peghead. A brass hoop tone ring & fiberskyn head provide strong warm tone. Andy Denny uses North American hardwoods (locally grown when possible) for the neck and rim, US-made hardware, and he makes his own tension hoops. He names each banjo -- Winter is one of a kind.
