In 1980, you could walk into any music store in America and buy
a decent entry-level banjo or guitar for less than
$
200. In recent
years, guitar prices have held reasonably steady, but just try to
find a banjo for under
$
300! Well, now you can!
Saga’s Rover RB-30 and RB-35 banjos will thrill all banjo players
with professional features at an entry-level price. The RB-30
features an 11" rim of a special, hard aluminum alloy with an
integral bracket band. The tension hoop is nickel-plated rolled
brass. This strong, lightweight construction promises the ultimate
in tone and reliability. The slim, comfortable mahogany neck,
shaped like our professional models, features an adjustable
truss rod. The ivoroid bound, East Indian Rosewood fingerboard
has inlaid dot markers and features the standard 25
1
⁄
2
" scale.
14:1 ratio geared tuners and a geared fifth peg ensure easy,
accurate tuning. A deluxe armrest and tailpiece complete this
attractive banjo.
The Rover RB-35 has all the great RB-30 features plus a deluxe,
old-style, laminated, multi-ply, arched mahogany resonator,
with ivoroid binding. The resonator attaches to the nickel-
plated brass flange with four thumbscrews.
Rover RB-20 Banjo is the ideal first banjo. The neck is slim and
fast and all parts fit together properly. The neck angle can be
altered with the coordinator rod and the neck itself has an
adjustable truss rod. Rover RB-25, a resonator banjo, has all the
features of the RB-20, plus a geared 5
th
peg. The Rover
RB-20 and RB-25 banjos put a solid, dependable instrument
within the reach of any student or amateur.
