The Ome Minstrel has a very authentic old time banjo tone with a very woody tone. It features a shorter 25.5” scale, wider 1.34” nut width, and 17 fret S-scoped fingerboard. The 2-ply solid maple rim is 9/16” thick and is capped with black ebonite and bound with simulated tortoise shell. The Ome 12” maple Tone Rim construction combined with less brackets and wood rim-rod produce Ome's “woodiest” old time banjo tone. The Minstrel is made with the same care and precision as other Ome instruments and comes complete with their deluxe hardshell case and Limited Lifetime Warranty.
