  • Front and side of Denny Openback Banjo, Xenagos, Flathead Tone Ring

    Xenagos, with its flathead bluegrass tone ring, delivers bright, clear and loud tone.  Suitable for clawhammer or fingerpicking. You will be heard!  Neck & 11" rim are walnut.  Ebony fretboard is fully fretted for up-the-neck play. Simple styling includes nickel hardware and copper side dots.

    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 -- Xenagos is one of a kind

    The exact appearance of this item may vary.
