Banjo Studio is a proud authorized Ome dealer, and this is the exact banjo you will be purchasing: the Ome Juniper 12" 5-String Openback with a curly maple rim and neck.
The Juniper pairs a 12" 2-ply curly maple rim with the Ome heavy rolled brass tone ring and a Fiberskin head. The result is a full, round, old-time voice with a warm, woody low end and just a touch of brass-driven brightness, without the harsh overtones of heavier rings. The 17-fret ebony fingerboard and Victorian peghead carry Abalone and Mother of Pearl floral inlays, with an S-scoop for frailing right over the neck.
