We don’t get many used Waldman banjos even though we sell quite a few new ones. It turns out people just don’t want to let them go. This model is called “The Chromatic” and it was made in 2015. It’s in excellent structural and cosmetic condition and shows light signs of having been played. It features a 12-inch cherry pot with a wenge tone rim. The shell is drilled in progressive depths in the same proportion to the fret spacing, hence the “chromatic” designation. The banjo is loud and bright and not at all “plunky” or dark sounding. It has good volume with strong projection. This Chromatic has a 25 1/2″ scale length and a cherry neck that feels solid in your hand. The metal parts including the tuners are raw brass which will develop a nice patina over a few years. It has an ebony fingerboard and headstock veneer. Includes a padded gig bag.
