The Ibanez B300 is a 5-string banjo with a poplar block rim and a walnut veneer resonator, bound in abalone and featuring abalone purfling. The 26.4" scale neck is fashioned out of mahogany, offering a purpleheart fingerboard with 22 frets and special acrylic inlays. The armrest is fashioned out of chrome and sports an etched pattern.
Chrome friction tuners affix strings to the headstock, while a purpleheart and maple bridge anchors strings to the body. The instrument also features a chrome clamshell tailpiece. With its gloss finish, the banjo is as handsome as it is musical.
