#613- Mesquite and Pistachio Mini Five String Banjo

The mini five string banjo is one of our original Beansprout designs from our re-launch 5 years ago and it still holds up. This one is tuned to open c tuning, like a capo on the fifth fret of a regular banjo. But, it can also be quickly tuned to cgcea which is more comfortable for Ukulele people. The combination of mesquite, pistachio, brass and goat skin is rustic but fancy and it rings like a bell. The pistachio is from California Orchards and the mesquite is from a retired banjo builder.
