This Ozark composite banjo is a perfect travel banjo. It is lightweight and the short-scale size makes it easy to travel around with. It has a high standard of construction with moulded composite shell, a slim mahogany neck and 19-fret ovangkol fingerboard. It features an eight-inch diameter head, individual chrome plated machine heads and 5th string tuner, all with pearloid buttons. The smaller size also makes this a perfect starter banjo. The Ozark mini banjo is tuned in C: C-F-C-E-G (low to high) and produces a full, vibrant sound. It includes a padded cover for protection when on the move.
