Custom Nechville Atlas Openback Banjo

Echoing of the Ashborn Banjos of the 1860's which feature block-style construction and a built-in wooden flange, this Nechville-Sagmoen collaboration is sure to get the attention of the entire banjo community. The Atlas is the first example of Nechville’s use of his patented Flux Capacitor in a "Flex-Tone" hybrid production banjo. It combines the old standard hook and nut style pot with an adjustable Nechville neck for portability and rapid set up for any style of playing.

Imagine wrapping one hand around the comfortable, sleek radiused neck, and strumming your first chord with the other - instantly realizing what the fuss is all about. "Big" sound is not enough to describe what emanates from the Atlas, and fullness is an understatement.

The depth, resonance, and sustain will transport you to new musical heights through the musical tool that is the Atlas. Nechville has carefully selected, cut and crafted aged walnut blocks into an artful and tonally superior banjo body. The resulting 12" body is capped with exotic hard tone wood, imparting a dark and warming timbre to this banjo's sound. We have chosen a Renaissance head for an organic, mellow, responsive tone.
