The Banjo

The Banjo was designed to hit the ground running, with articulations including Hammer-ons, Pull-offs, Slides, and Strums. Plus, you can just hold a chord and let our new Arpeggiator play realistic banjo rolls for you! Our Banjo rings out a brilliant, yet full-bodied sound and the Mixer gives you full control over the two mics we used to capture its sound.
