Somerset County Banjos

Somerset S-1
Our flagship model is truly a musician’s banjo. The all American walnut construction combined with premium hardware and careful hand fitting endows the S-1 with a virtually limitless range. The S-1 was actually designed around the amazing JLS #4 flat top tone ring. The Somerset S-1 stands alone as the pinnacle of modern banjo innovation and performance.

Somerset S-2
The Somerset S-2 gives top notch performance at a truly affordable price. The three-ply 11" maple rim combined with a heavy all brass tone ring, notched tension hoop and 24 top quality bracket hooks delivers exceptional tone and volume up and down the fingerboard.

Somerset S-3
The Somerset S-3 was inspired by scaled down banjos produced over one hundred years ago. The ten inch maple rim, 24" scale neck and hand fitted cocobolo rosewood tone ring combine to produce a full rich tone with plenty of volume. This is a perfect banjo for anyone who is looking for big performance in a smaller package.

Somerset S-4

The Somerset S-4 features a substantial twelve inch maple rim with 24 brackets complimented by a heavy all brass tone ring and a scooped fingerboard. The S-4 delivers the power, tone and responsiveness that you have been waiting for in a 12" openback.

Somerset S-5 Minuteman

The Somerset S-5 Minuteman was conceived and designed to stand firmly on the American ideals of teamwork, craftsmanship and quality. At only $599.00, the S-5 offers more value dollar for dollar than anything on the market right now.
