The Recording King Madison RK-R36 is for every banjo player looking for a high-quality, great-sounding instrument that won't break the bank.
The RK-R36 is built with a Mastertone-style bell brass cast tone ring and one-piece flange and a select mahogany resonator and neck.
The 24-hook brass tension hoop allows the head to be adjusted to the perfect tension, and the nickel-plated hardware matches vintage Mastertone-style specs at a fraction of the price.
For touring, studio or jam sessions, the RK-R36 Madison is a rugged high-performance instrument with all the essentials: 3-ply maple rim, bell brass tone ring, one-piece flange and 24-hook brass tension hoop.
