Gold Tone Maple Mountain Openback Banjo

For a sweet frailing or clawhammer tone the MM-150 is our original open back and has been very well received. Options include a long neck (MM-150LN), a fretless model (M-150FL), or a fingerboard cutaway model which allows right hand frailing above the head for an extra sweet plunkey tone (MM-150C).

Our open back has 24 brackets, White Ladye tone ring (a three part tone ring famous for its plunky and sustaining tone) clear finish on maple, chrome-plated parts, maple neck, planetary tuners, and a thinner maple rim allowing more "air space" in the tone chamber. It is equipped with a Remo Fiberskyn head, rosewood fingerboard, and diamond inlay.
