TME and Rickard Banjos have had a long and collaborative relationship.Their excellent craftsmanship, vintage-inspired tone, and unique, old-timey aesthetic makes their banjos a perfect fit for our store. This "Dobson" model features a maple rim, frailing scoop, antiqued brass hardware and a beautiful, tea-stained goat skin head. The Rickard Dobson delivers a wonderful, old-time cluckiness, and a fat note attack -- retained even when the banjo is played muted with a cloth or rag inside the pot. Priced with Superior brand hard case.
