Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built in a left-handed format, the BC-350/L Bob Carlin Banjo uses a 12-inch three-ply maple pot, rolled brass tone ring, and maple neck with a scooped ebony fingerboard. Its hardware includes planetary-gear tuners, a No-Knot tailpiece, and a Hot Dog armrest. Nickel-plated metal parts are specified for long-wearing durability, and each instrument is set up by skilled hands in Gold Tone's Florida shop. The 18-fret layout keeps the model closely defined around its Carlin-specified design.
