Recording King RK-R20 Songster 5-String Banjo

$599.99

For folks looking to spend as little as possible, but still get into a good quality 5-string resonator bluegrass banjo, I usually recommend starting here. It's rolled brass hoop makes for a good, crisp sound while reducing the weight of the banjo significantly. So for that reason, it also is a good choice for someone searching for a lighter weight banjo.
