Caraya Tenor Size All Maple Open-Back Banjolele, 4-String |BJ-24|
the Caraya Openback 17-Fret Tenor is tuned in 5ths like a viola or cello (C,G,D,A), making it a great crossover instrument for string players! The 17-Fret Caraya banjo is particularly beneficial to Irish/Celtic players looking for a shorter scale length to make those tricky single-note runs or extensive fingerboard stretches.
Based on the best-selling Caraya banjo, the Caraya Openback 17-Fret Tenor is tuned in 5ths like a viola or cello (C,G,D,A), making it a great crossover instrument for string players!
While the 19-Fret Tenor is the traditional tenor option, the 17-Fret is particularly beneficial to Irish/Celtic players looking for a shorter scale length to make those tricky single-note runs or extensive fingerboard stretches.
It is a delight to play with its short-scale fretboard, slim neck, and lightweight body and if desired, can be tuned for Irish G,D,A,E (requires Irish Tenor string set)
17-Fret Tenor banjo weighs about 4 pounds so it is ideal for traveling, camping, hiking, and taking to the beach and provides a vibrant singing banjo tone in any situation.
Also, light enough to easily hold and play and is the perfect banjo to start out with since it is fretted correctly and plays easily. The shorter 17-fret neck reduces the length of the entire banjo to just 32 inches end to end.
