Description
We’re thrilled to have Jon Reville back at the McNeela Studio, performing the driving reel “The Penny Candle” on the premium McNeela Norseman 4‑String Tenor Banjo.
This heartfelt rendition captures the Norseman’s warm, resonant tone and precise dynamic touch—ideal for expressing the uplifting feel of Irish reels.
The Norseman features a flamed maple back, rosewood fingerboard with intricate pearl inlay, a 40‑hole arch‑top tone ring, geared tuners, double‑footed bridge, and is tuned GDAE like the fiddle or mandolin. Its design offers strong projection, clear response, and rich sustain—perfect for nuanced solo and session playing.
