| The Original K10 & K11 5-string banjos are reproductions of the 1930's "blue" banjos which at that time were built by Gibson and sold under the Kel Kroydon name at Sears Roebuck. The new Kel Kroydons are built by the American Made Banjo Company in the USA. The original "blue" models feature a rich high gloss blue finish, maple neck and resonator and the special MOT pearlescent fingerboard & resonator back, like the originals from the 1930's. The neck and the fingerboard on these banjos feel unbelievably smooth, and the strings can be set very close to the fingerboard. Very easy to play and the tonal quality is outstanding. The differences between the K10 and the K11 are cosmetic. The K11, based on the Style 11 from the 1930's, is the model which most people associate with the original Kel Kroydon name. | |

The New Generation models are of presentation maple (or mahogany) with a traditional rich brown high gloss finish. These also include a genuine ebony fingerboard (or rosewood) and genuine mother-of-pearl inlays.
The New Generation model includes the Dannick Tone Ring, which MIT developed for this banjo, using a 1930's style 4 tone ring. (This tone ring alone sells for $900.) Other options are available by special request. All of the new Kel Kroydon Banjos include state of the art metal components, including the new Dannick bell bronze tone ring. You will be amazed by the incredible response with a full, beautiful tone and clarity all the way up the fingerboard. |
