Gold Tone/Nechville OT-MH Marc Horowitz Signature Banjo
I bought this ingenious banjo to be my travel instrument. It's light and has a huge, clear, balanced sound. It is perfectly set up for playing clawhammer, and is ideal for festivals and playing outside. Leave your rare, delicate banjo at home and bring this one on your trips to the wilderness and foreign cities! Thanks to the Nechville technology, it can be taken apart and will fit into a suitcase. I'm only selling it because I don't travel so much any more (and because I got a flight case for my primary instrument).
Product description: Stable graphite neck on a 12" Nechville Atlas pot with Nechville's Flex-Tone adjustable/removable neck system. Graphite neck (26-1/4" scale. 1-1/4" nut), pearl dot inlays with star on peghead and at 5th fret, S-shaped scoop starts at 17th fret, Gotoh nickel 2-band planetary gears & geared 5th peg with black buttons. Nechville Atlas pot (no tone ring) with Remo Fiberskyn head, tension hoop cut low near neck for hand comfort, Sampson compensated birch & ebony bridge, Nechville straight-pulling tailpiece, Little Mountain black Corian armrest. This joint project between Gold Tone and Nechville was instigated by banjo player and musical instrument sales rep Marc Horowitz. Marc spent too much time adjusting his banjo and too little time playing at a rainy festival a few years ago. This was his solution.
