Pete Seeger played a custom-made long neck banjo, with 32" neck.This is a replica of that banjo. This banjo can be played in the G key with a capo on the 4th fret, so it's possible to play many more tunings than a normal length banjo. This includes a vintage Hamilton capo. This new AC-1LN sells for $349 at Sweetwater: Clocking in with a 32-inch scale length — almost six inches longer than the standard AC-series banjos — Gold Tone’s AC-1LN 5-string open-back banjo delivers a deeper, warmer, and bass-heavy spin on the traditional 5-string banjo formula. This banjo’s basic open-back construction almost exactly mirrors the Sweetwater-favorite AC series of banjos, boasting a robust 11-inch composite rim and Remo LC Frosted head to grant you the rich, woody thump so sought after by clawhammer players and old-time musicians. However, the rosewood-topped nato neck’s long 32-inch scale length, traditionally tuned to E instead of G, supplies a more full-bodied drawl ideal for singers with deeper registers. Finish it off with a slick Zero Glide nut, adjustable coordinator rod, and covered guitar-style tuners, and the Gold Tone AC-1LN Long Neck offers banjo players of all skill levels and backgrounds a fresh new 5-string tone to explore.
