Overview
The Fender FB-54 5-String Banjo is all Fender quality and construction infused into one of the most popular folk instruments of today. Taking design points from the classic models of the mid-20th century, the FB-54 employs a 30-bracketed aluminum rim and all-mahogany, closed-back construction for a woody, focused tone that brings the most out of every pluck. Finished in a vintage red sunburst and packing a real Remo head, this 5-string banjo looks and feels like a vintage instrument, but comes in at a price any musician can get behind.
Originally produced in South Korea during the early 2000s, this model has since been discontinued.
- Body & Resonator: It features an all-mahogany closed-back resonator and a mahogany neck, providing a warm, traditional aesthetic.
- "Bottlecap" Rim: The core structure relies on a 30-bracketed one-piece cast aluminum rim and flange. In the banjo community, this integrated aluminum design is commonly referred to as a "bottlecap" banjo because the structural ridges resemble a soda bottle cap.
- Hardware: It comes equipped with a standard 11-inch Remo frosted head, a maple/rosewood bridge, and a 27.4-inch scale length neck with 22 frets and pearloid snowflake inlays.
