Brand new banjo by Ibanez. The brand new B300 banjo is a traditional five-string, ideal for bluegrass of course. Leaping out immediately is its elaborate fretboard inlay, just beautiful. Its high-gloss mahogany bowl, its steel tension hoop with a 24-piece bracket and its many other fine appointments relative to the price indicates a great value. This is an ideal instrument for a lucky beginner, for an advancing student who wishes to upgrade from a starter banjo, or for a string instrument musician who wants to develop facility on a new instrument. This is a perfect banjo for many scenarios.
