Recording King RK-R35-BR "Madison" Resonator Banjo with Bell Brass Tone Ring w/ Case

This Recording King RK-R35 Madison 5-String Banjo is in excellent condition. It does show some light wear from normal play including some light fogging in the chrome plating on the armrest (see picture). Otherwise, this banjo is very clean and free from any dings, dents, scratches, or signs of heavy play. This banjo has been professionally set up and plays great! The neck is straight, the action is low and comfortable, and the frets are in excellent condition. The previous owner installed railroad spikes on the 7th and 9th frets. This banjo will come complete with a very nice Gold Tone Hardshell Case that is also in very clean condition. Awesome deal on a fantastic playing and sounding Recording King RK-R35 Madison Banjo!

The Madison RK-R35 gives banjo players a high-quality, great-sounding banjo with a classic Mastertone-style bell brass cast tone ring and one-piece flange.

The Recording King Madison RK-R35 is built around our 3-ply steam bent maple rim, using the same rim and hardware as in the best-selling RK-ELITE-75.

The maple neck has an adjustable two-way truss rod and a comfortable padauk fretboard. With a 24-hook brass tension hoop, players can enjoy precise adjustment of the head tension.

The planetary tuners, geared 5th peg and dual coordinator rods are pro components that add an authentic feel to these impressive banjos.

The Madison RK-R35 has a maple resonator with hand-rubbed brown matte finish. The peghead and fretboard feature our Seagull inlay, for a banjo that looks as classic as it sounds.

The Madison features American threaded nickel-plated hook and nut hardware, presto-style tailpiece and armrest, and comes standard with an authentic Remo head.
