Recording King Banjos
Recording King builds high quality banjos, including 5-string bluegrass and openback banjos. Greg Rich, of Gibson banjo fame, was instrumental in the design of some of the first Recording King bluegrass banjos. The style and design of Recording King Banjos is similar to some of the premier pre war Gibson Banjos. A few of these models include a cast brass tone ring for a powerful sound.They’re excellent banjos at very reasonable price points.
RK’s Songster shows its roots with time-honored components that give a nod to bluegrass history right down to the original RK hex-stamped flange design. The mahogany resonator and neck combine with the rolled tone ring and classy gloss finish for true banjo tone and vintage bluegrass authenticity players won’t often find at this price.
Modeled after the original Mastertone banjos of the 1930's, the Recording King RK-Elite offers players vintage sound and handcrafted construction.
