Why We Love This

Rare as they've become, new Chuck Lee banjos still get us fired up when they arrive! Several TME staffers own Chuck's instruments; and we see them as the perfect intersection of aesthetic beauty and refined tone.

This Prairieville 12" combines a natural hide head and rolled brass tone ring: the sound is round & warm, yet well defined enough to cut through an ensemble mix. Tastefully adorned with a Yellow Rose inlay and Pegheadz tuners, this banjo looks like it could have come from a bygone era, though it sounds distinct and present. It's a fabulous instrument for a player interested in traditional looks and modern power. Priced with hardshell case.
