Description

The Goodtime Parlor is a shorter-scale version of its famous Goodtime Openback sibling, making it the perfect beginner banjo for kids or players of smaller stature. The iconic blonde maple aesthetic of the Goodtime banjos is adorned in a durable US Bronze powder finish including the tension hoop, tailpiece and armrest.

As you play the 19 fret, 23" scale Goodtime Parlor, the medium strings offer physical and tonal balance across the neck's shorter scale, making this banjo a perfect travel or camping companion.

Fans of the Goodtime banjos will also be happy to know that Parlor retains the groundbreaking 3-ply violin-grade maple rim, which has been key in helping the Goodtime sound so good for so many players.

Don't settle for an average time. Have a Goodtime.
