SOLD - 2008 Lame Horse - Jenkins & Son Instruments Gitjo - Six String Banjo

The Gitjo was made to offer guitarist a chance to make that banjo twang. The six string banjo is not a new concept, however this Lame Horse Gitjo is full of style and has a sound everyone loves. The tone ring is crafted from multiple pieces of Maple and Bubinga with a lovely pattern. The 7 piece neck meets the body via a thick brass plate that add wonderful sustain and power. This is a really fun instrument that will give you a whole other sound on stage, in the studio or on your front porch. From Blues to Old Time to Celtic you'll love having this in your arsenal.
