The Epiphone Mastertone Bowtie Open Back Banjo was inspired by Gibson Mastertone models with Bowtie cosmetics from the 1950s and 1960s and delivers high-quality with vintage style at an accessible price point. Perfect for clawhammer/frailing as well as Scruggs-style players, it is equipped with a 26.4 scale length satin- finished mahogany neck that features the Gibson scroll-style headstock with mother-of- pearl Epiphone logo and Gibson Crown inlays, the bound laurel fretboard has 22 frets and classic mother-of-pearl Bowtie inlays and Mastertone block inlay at the end of the fretboard.
The rim is layered mahogany with a simple hoop tone ring, and the notched nickel tension hoop and 11 Remo Fiberskyn head are held in place with 24 nickel hooks.
