Stewart in Philadelphia over one hundred years ago. Saga has incorporated a slightly heavier maple rim with a rolled brass tone ring to produce an instrument retaining the traditional look and feel of banjos produced in that Golden Era. In the last century, banjos were parlor instruments strung with gut. The heavier rim design along with Planetary pegs and a geared fifth peg were added to compensate for the increased tension and torque of modern steel strings. These banjos are certain to be favorites amongst frailers, claw-hammers and old time banjo exponents. Testimonials: Date: Tue, 18 Apr 2000 Hi Mickey, Please forgive my forgetfulness.  I wanted to let you know that the Saga travel banjo arrived Friday, a day ahead of schedule! Thanks for the prompt service.  My wife loves it (Me, too).  This little banjo has a terrific sound.  I tuned it to the key of C, and it worked like a charm. Cheryl just has to transpose her mind to the different chord names, and she'll really be rolling along. It's a great little piece.  Thank you very much for recommending it.
