Resnick Resophonic Banjo
$3,295.00
Ross Nickerson " ResNick" Resophonic Banjo - The Banjonator
The ResNick is no longer being made
The ResNick is a resophonic banjo designed by Ross Nickerson with the expertise of Resophonic Guitar "Dobro" builders Mark Thibeault and Jason Friesen of Rayco Resophonics.
This "Banjonator" as I like to call it was born from an inspiration of mine to make a resophonic banjo that really cut it. Mark Thibeault of Rayco and I worked together in a band for six years and during that time we spent a lot of time perfecting the ResNick Though I know this not the first dobro banjo made, the ResNick is different. We have put a lot of time and thought into working out the problems inherent with putting a instrument like this together and getting the tone up to the standards that a pro could perform on stage with it. Rayco's dobro's are beautiful sounding instruments.
The ResNick also features a specially designed Fults tailpiece made by top banjo tailpiece maker and designer Bob Fults
Some of The Resnicks pictured on this page are custom models. For instance, the hummingbird peghead pictured above was a custom request. The standard model still has diamonds and dots inlay with a choice of most woods and colors though.

I received the Resnick this morning and have been playing it all day...It plays beautifully, Thanks.....I've been showing it off all over town and people are loving it. Cool eh? Some of the songs I wrote with a normal Banjo sound so unique with the Resnick. It opens a whole new way of creating music., Thanks again Jack............
First I want you to know how awesome the ResNick banjo is. It's sound is better than I had hoped for. You guys really know your stuff. It really has the sound of a resophonic guitar. I have had a Dobro 'Dobjo" since 1981, and there is no comparison...Thanks again for a fine instrument. It was definately worth the wait. Mark Maple - Decatur, IL

Neat instrument
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulIt's a great instrument & I wish these were still being built cause they could be great for Hawaiian Music. Luckily, Gold tone makes something similar (which they call Dojos) & they're quite loud. My favorite advantage of the Resophonic Banjo aka Dojo is that I can use a Slide to play Slide Blues & get that Iconic Bluesy National Square Neck Lap Steel Resonator Sound that's great for playing 12 Bar Blues as well as Hawaiian songs like Aloha Oe by Queen Liliʻuokalani. I love doing this on Resophonic Banjo, Banjola (aka Wood Bodied Banjo), even Regular 5 string Banjo sometimes.
WOW....just Wow..

0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulIts mere presence is a work of art, in and of itself. Its every curve and reflection reveal new beauty. My fingers are delightfully tender with wrists to match. It is lovely beyond all form and tune.
t is absolutely BEAUTIFUL and sounds great
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulRoss, Received the Resnick today. It is absolutely BEAUTIFUL and sounds great. I LOVE it. I had my second lesson earlier today on the student banjo and when I got home, the Resnick had arrived and needless to say, the student banjo will never be played again by me. The Resnick brings me into a whole new world. Again, thanks for all your help and I am really glad I decided to get the Resnick. I am so excited to learn more and more.

THANKS for absolutely fabulous and fantastic ResNick,
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulHi, Ross! At first I would like to say THANKS for absolutely fabulous and fantastic ResNick, what I received yesterday! I don´t have words to say all thanks for such great instrument!!! It took approximately one hour to warm this "5-string lady" up and then it starts to show off...!!! FANTASTIC!!!! What a finishing Mark have done...!!!!! And as I´ve spread a word and showed it to other musicians, it seems, that my musician-carrier flies up very fast...;)
