Five-Star Bluegrass Banjo Pot


Read 1 Review   |   Write a Review

The heart of the bluegrass banjo, delivering solid traditional sound with clarity and plenty of punch. Our high quality rim outfit has been a favorite of professional banjomakers for many years.

A traditional one-piece cast alloy resonator flange, and our 11"-diameter bell-bronze Five-Star tone ring, are hand-fitted to a high quality 3-ply maple rim. Bracket hooks, hex nuts with wrench, and a notched brass tension hoop complete the outfit.

Gibson RB Banjo coversion to Mastertone clone

I used the pot kit to convert my Gibson RB banjo to a Mastertone clone. I really only needed the tone ring and the machined rim to make the conversion. I did use all the rest of the kit due to the superior Nickel plating on the other parts. It would be good if the machined rim would be sold separately as it really is not a matched set as I received both the rim and tone ring separately due a shipping error. The results were outstanding a loud and excellent sounding banjo. The conversion was easy and required only changing the neck studs to use the Stewmac double coordinator rods .
