This Bart Reiter 11" Standard Open-Back Banjo sports incredible build quality and a no-frills appearance that means business with a bright, yet full tone. Sitting in a sort of sweet spot in the Bart Reiter lineup, this Standard combines a 11" pot#similar to our shop favorite Buckbee, with the gorgeous neck and headstock we've come to enjoy on the Roundpeak.

The neck here is Mahogany with an Ebony fingerboard, and a bone nut. This is a 26 1/4" scale length banjo and features a traditional peghead and a scooped neck—plus it comes with a full set up from one of our luthiers.
