The nameBanjo Killer was coined by Bryan Sutton for his six-stringed onstage sidekick, back in the day when he burst onto the bluegrass scene in the late 1990s.
This Banjo Killer has double scalloped X brace design, stiffer back bracing and a custom 25” scale. Bearclaw Sitka Spruce, figured Mahogany and the “snakehead” headstock round out an otherwise understated aesthetic presentation.
