Gold Tone OT-10 Maple Neck Open Back 10-String Banjitar w/Hardshell Case

The OT-10 is a 10-string banjo (think 12-string guitar). The strings are arranged in pairs with unisons on the first, second, and fifth string, and octaves on the third and fourth. This banjo is easily played by any five string banjoist as the fingerings are all the same. The tone is loud and penetrating with added sustain caused by the extra string tension. The OT-10 features a tubaphone-style pot assembly with tubaphone-style tone ring and genuine bracket band for a plunky tone.
