Banjo Studio is proud to be an authorized Rickard Banjo dealer. You are viewing the actual banjo that you'll be purchasing.

The Rickard 11" Cherry Little Wonder is a banjo with tonal balance. Thanks to its precision-engineered 11" Little Wonder tone ring, this banjo delivers a bright, crisp response that beautifully cuts through a jam without ever sounding harsh or shrill. Paired with a Renaissance head, it produces a deeply focused, woody plunk and longing sustain that is great for traditional clawhammer and old-time arrangements.

This instrument showcases Rickard Banjo’s legendary devotion to historical design and modern innovation:

Premium Cherry Construction: The gorgeous cherry neck—complete with a classic Dobson-style rounded heel and an elegant cherry vine peghead inlay—offers a warm resonance and an incredibly smooth, fast feel.

The "S" Curved Frailing Scoop: Designed specifically for old-time players, the custom scoop allows you to effortlessly play over the neck, providing those ultra-warm, round, and classic "frailing" sweet-spot tones.

Rickard Cyclone 10:1 Tuners: These super smooth, high-ratio tuners provide the ultra-precise, rock-solid tuning stability usually reserved for modern guitars, all hidden inside a traditional look.

Antiqued Brass Hardware: The hardware features a stunning, custom-aged patina that gives the instrument the immediate soul, character, and look of a treasured century-old heirloom.

You aren't just buying an assembly-line instrument; you are investing in a piece of boutique North American craftsmanship. It boasts incredibly low, effortless action right out of the case, making it a pure joy to play for hours on end. Whether you are backing up a fiddle player in a tight kitchen jam or micro-tuning on stage, its perfect blend of historical old-time aesthetic and flawless modern playability makes the Rickard 11" Cherry Little Wonder an absolute must-have for the serious banjoist.

Note: Each instrument is unique. This specific banjo (Serial: 1855) is packed and ready to ship, and it includes a premium hardshell case to protect your investment for generations to come.
