Aurora | Banjo #259
“Aurora” is an amazing banjo, in tone, good looks, and playability. A 13 inch pot, fully loaded with most all of our innovative options, you will find them below. Aurora has a classic woody tone, coming from an ancient oak tree that died of old age in our forest, perhaps 30-40 years ago, curing perfectly! Other woods in this banjo include Wenge and Bilinga, both excellent tone woods.
