We are proud to be an authorized Rickard Banjo Dealer. You are viewing the actual banjo that you'll be purchasing.
This is a wonderful example of what Rickard Banjos are all about. It has a gorgeous sound, amazing playability and a wonderful instrument to look at. The neck has a hand polished varnish that feels so smooth in the hand, you don't want to put it down. This Maple Ridge version has three modifications done to it. We made this one fretless and added a goat skin that was stained to match the Maple Ridge antiqued brass hardware. You have to have one of these.
