The Korena take
BA250 250th Anniversary is a right-handed five-string resonator banjo with a commemorative eagle-themed walnut veneer resonator. Its poplar block rim and rolled tone ring are voiced for clear attack, projection, and snap, giving picked lines definition in fast rolls and melodic passages. An okoume neck pairs with a purpleheart fingerboard for a smooth playing surface. Star inlays, chrome hardware, and high-gloss natural finish complete the anniversary-focused presentation without taking the traditional banjo layout away from the instrument.
Strong match
Who this is for
