Description

The Pisgah 11″ Wonder is a modern classic, blending time-honored craftsmanship with the sweet, articulate tone that defines Old-Time music. Featuring a 25.5″ scale and an 11″ steam-bent rim, this banjo delivers exceptional clarity and response—perfect for melodic clawhammer playing and nuanced backup work.

This builder’s choice banjo is a fresh take on our Pisgah Wonder, featuring a cherry neck and rim, persimmon fretboard and folk heel.

At the heart of the instrument lies the historic Little Wonder tone ring, a faithful recreation of the classic design that added snap and presence to countless vintage banjos. This tone ring offers a balanced tone: crisp highs, warm lows, and just the right amount of sustain.

A thumb rest neck profile enhances playability for clawhammer stylists, while a two-way adjustable truss rod ensures long-term neck stability. The banjo is finished with a goat skin head, and a frailing-style tension hoop allowing more room and comfort for frailing and clawhammer styles

Whether you’re a session regular or a porch picker, the 11″ Wonder is a versatile, inspiring companion that brings tradition forward with grace.
