Overview

Early 20th-century stylings.

The PS-250 evokes the jazz banjos of the late 1920s and early 1930s with its vintage design and huge tone. The pot assembly features a bell brass flat-top tone ring, a one-piece flange and a 14" mahogany resonator that helps the PS-250 produce a powerful statement in any ensemble or solo setting. This 22-fret plectrum banjo offers comfortable, low action for easy chording and maximum ease of fretting. It can be played in the traditional CGBD tuning or the DGBE Chicago tuning.



Vintage-style banjo, great for Dixieland jazz.
