Goodtime A/E Banjo : It’s electric!

2 years ago

This banjo is light and easy to play. It’s got simple construction but feels secure. The acoustic sound is effective and through an electric guitar amp it still sounds like a banjo because the skin has a stronger influence on the string vibration than an acoustic guitar soundboard would. I’ve played this in stage using a silent jack into clean valve amp and swapping back and forth between this banjo and a single coil guitar and the level is pretty similar (as the pickup in the Goodtime banjo is a little further from the strings and presumably a bit stronger since it’s a humbucker). All in a great experience and feedback well under control.
