The Wildwood Exotic Wood Series Frailing banjo is the latest model from Mark Platen at Wildwood using all non-endangered woods throughout and an oil rubbed, open pore finish.
This spectacular open-back instrument features a solid maple, lathe-turned pot fitted with a dense African Wenge-wood tone-ring.
The neck is a mix of African Bubinga & Wenge with a Maple center strip and an ebony fretboard with Clawhammer scoop.
The bindings are curly maple and all finished in an open-pore, hand-rubbed Tung Oil and wax finish.
The Wenge tone ring offers a much lighter weight and adds considerable warmth to the tone, while maintaining sustain and clarity.
A hardshell, case is included.
