Description

This Recording King RK-ELITE-76 Mastertone-Style 5-String Banjo is in excellent condition. It was very well cared for by its original owner and shows no dings, dents, scratches, or any signs of heavy play. This banjo has been professionally set up and plays great! The neck is straight, the action is low and comfortable, and the frets are in excellent condition. The previous owner had railroad spikes professionally installed on the 7, 8, 9, 10 Frets. This banjo will come complete with a very nice hardshell case as pictured. Awesome deal on a high-quality and great sounding Recording King RK-ELITE-76 Banjo!
Modeled after the original Mastertone banjos of the 1930's, the Recording King RK-Elite offers players vintage sound and handcrafted construction.
Professional components like a classic Mastertone-style tone ring and true steam-bent 3-ply maple rim put this banjo in a category by itself.
With classic design features like the vintage-style double-cut Recording King peghead and custom Hearts & Flowers-style inlay, this banjo proudly wears its historic heritage.
The 27-3/8" scale delivers extra punch, combining traditional sound and looks with modern power.
