We are proud to carry Starr Banjos, built by Chuck Ogsbury in Gold Hill, Colorado. You are viewing the actual banjo that you will be purchasing.
The Starr Trek is a 4-string, 19-fret tenor banjo designed, finished and signed by Chuck Ogsbury. It is a no-frills openback built around tone, response and playability: a curly maple tone rim, an African mahogany neck with a Pau Ferro fingerboard, and aged brass hardware. With a 22-1/8" scale and a 1-1/4" nut, it is right at home playing Irish melody or jazz chords.
