Barnes & Mullins BJ400 Rathbone 5-String Banjo

Ready to move up in the banjo world? The Rathbone banjo is just the thing...

The Barnes & Mullins 'Rathbone' banjo is a handsome 5-string named after Rathbone Place, London: the home of Messrs Barnes and Mullins in the early 1900s.

The mahogany neck, resonator and rim are complemented by a striking black Remo WeatherKing head, combining a stylish modern aesthetic with a traditional warmth of tone and a smooth playing response.

The Rathbone banjo is completed by chrome hardware and fittings, an ovangkol fingerboard, traditional planetary style machineheads, and the historic 'Barnes & Mullins, London W' inlaid logo.

The Rathbone 5-string banjo is also available as an electro model.
