Overview

A punchy blend of maple and composite materials for the traveling performer on a budget.

The AC-5 Composite Resonator 5-String Banjo may stray a bit from the traditional wood body banjo design, but it packs a punch like no other and will stand up against any banjo in its price range. The rim and resonator are molded from a composite material that is stong, consistent, and durable. Whether you are new to the banjo and looking for an affordable model to get started on, or you seek the ultimate travel banjo, this banjo packs more than enough heat to echo through the hills and shine in any campfire jam. Padded gig bag included.
