Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Epiphone’s Mastertone Classic is a right-handed resonator banjo built around mahogany throughout the body and neck. Its 11-inch frosted Remo head, 3-ply mahogany rim, and mahogany resonator give it the crisp, projecting banjo response described for bluegrass and folk work. The 26.4-inch C-profile neck carries 22 frets on a laurel fingerboard, while nickel hardware, pearloid-button planetary tuners, and mother-of-pearl inlays complete its period-inspired presentation. A hardshell case is included for transport.
Strong match
Who this is for

- Taking a banjo to rehearsals or performances with the included hardshell case.
Consider the trade-offs
