Rover RB-25 Resonator Back Banjo
ROVER-RB-25When you’re ready to step up to your intermediate 5-string banjo–we suggest you check out the RB-25 by Rover®. This is a high-quality instrument with a professionally styled resonator–more volume and carrying power to match your developing banjo skills. The neck is fast and accurately-fretted–it plays just like our most expensive banjos–but the low price of the RB-25 makes it affordable for any serious student. The geared 5th peg and brightly nickel-plated metal hardware are just a few of the many points of excellence that make the RB-25 by Rover® a world-beating value!
