Featuring a double scalloped X brace design, stiffer back bracing and a 25.5” scale, the Banjo Killer’s bark is as terrifying as its bite. Bearclaw Sitka Spruce, figured Mahogany and our distinctive “snakehead” headstock round out an otherwise understated aesthetic presentation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eSpecification Sheet\u003cbr\u003eModel: SD\u003cbr\u003eSerial #: 11397\u003cbr\u003eBuild Date: 6\/18\/2026\u003cbr\u003eTop: Bearclaw Figured Sitka Spruce\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 25.5 Long Scale\u003cbr\u003eCutaway: No\u003cbr\u003eTop Color: Natural\u003cbr\u003eBack: Light Figure Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eRosette: Wood Rings\u003cbr\u003eBackstrip: DB Backstrip and black line\u003cbr\u003eEndpiece Inlay: Body Wood\u003cbr\u003eBody Binding: Ivoroid\u003cbr\u003ePurfling: Banjo Killer Top Border w\/ Back and Sides\u003cbr\u003eHead Shape: Bourgeois Snake Headstock\u003cbr\u003eHead Veneer: Madagascar Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eHead Inlay: Mother of Pearl Bourgeois Logo\u003cbr\u003eHead Binding: None\u003cbr\u003eF.B.\/Bridge Wood Madagascar Rosewood Fretboard and Bridge\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Inlay: Tiny MOP Dots\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Binding: Matched with Binding, No Purfling\u003cbr\u003eNut\/Bridge Width: Nut- 1 23\/32 Bridge- 2.2\u003cbr\u003eHeel Cap: NONE\u003cbr\u003eTuners: Waverly Nickel\/Ivoroid\u003cbr\u003eBridge: Belly Bridge\u003cbr\u003ePins: Ebony with Pearl Dot\u003cbr\u003ePickguard: Celluloid Tortoise\u003cbr\u003ePickup: None\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Dana Bourgeois Signature Label\u003cbr\u003eGlue: Standard\u003cbr\u003eNeck Finish: Satin\u003cbr\u003eHeadstock Finish: High Gloss\u003cbr\u003eBody Finish: High Gloss\u003cbr\u003eNotes:\u003cbr\u003eSpecial Options:\u003cbr\u003eDouble Scalloped \"Banjo Killer\" Bracing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Eastman Strings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53660399993131,"sku":null,"price":6499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/5314\/5899\/files\/E5EC0718-78FD-417F-8A90-F7B2B73897D7.jpg?v=1782929124","url":"https:\/\/www.rustyscoolguitars.com\/products\/bourgeois-banjo-killer","provider":"Rusty's Cool Guitars ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
