Moonshine

Take this brand new openback for a spin.

Openback of the Future

The Moonshine brings Heli-Mount technology to the openback market. Its high tech Excelsior frame yields a smooth musical sound from its perfectly tensioned head. This is the same technology that our resonator banjos employ that grants huge flexibility in tone, setup, and tonal (and tone ring) options. You can upgrade the Excelsior frame with nickel plating or one of our many custom powercoat options.
