The Epiphone Mastertone Bowtie Open Back Banjo at a glance
With design elements inspired by the fifties and sixties, the Epiphone Mastertone Bowtie Open Back 5-String Banjo is a faithful recreation of the iconic Gibson models. Suitable for both clawhammer and Scruggs-style players, it features an 11" mahogany body without a resonator, paired with a high-quality Remo Fiberskyn head, producing a percussive sound with a remarkably open and direct response. The mahogany neck has a classic design with a pronounced C-profile, providing excellent playability. Visual details, such as mother-of-pearl fingerboard inlays and the signature Gibson Crown headstock inlay, preserve the distinctive bowtie charm of the legendary original.
