Rickard Custom 11"

Description

For the most part, we stuck close to the script when ordering our first Rickards, and opted for tried-and-true models that old time banjo players already know and love. But this beautiful Rickard Custom 11" separates itself from the pack by way of a spunover antiqued brass rim for a vintage-inspired look and a bright and powerful sound that augments the natural character of its maple neck and pot. We added a Dobson-style tone ring to up the ante and the volume, turning this custom masterpiece into a uniquely responsive and loud open-back that will make sure your frailing doesn't get lost in the mix at your favorite jam. As per usual, Bill Rickard's necks give this five-string a distinctive feel and sound, and his famous Cyclone planetary tuners make finding the right pitch a breeze. Included in the price is a Superior hard-shell case.
