Hutchings Vintage Mosophone
€2,860.00
Tax included
Hutchings banjos are made in central Brittany (North west France) by the banjo-maker Sam Hutchings.
This is a 12″ banjo with a secret ….. Hidden in that flamed maple pot is a walnut blockrim with both Moso, and Little Wonder tonerings, a combination that resembles the classic tubaphone tone so much that I called it the Mosophone. The banjo also has a flamed redleaf maple neck that adds some snap to that sound. Hand rubbed oil finish and aged hardware complete the vintage look.
