Pilgrim Progress VPB30G 5-String G Banjo

We’re very pleased to be expanding our range of banjos here at Merchant City Music to include this outstanding quality Pilgrim Progress VPB30G 5-String G Banjo. This is a more substantial instrument than the open back VPB12, with more volume and focus due to the combination of aluminium shell and mahogany resonator.

Setting these instruments up can be tricky, as the bridge has to be manually positioned on the head. Buy from us for the assurance that the instrument will be fully set up by our in-store luthier-trained technician. Pop into our Glasgow store to experience our peerless customer service experience, or buy online for fast delivery to the UK and Europe.

Pilgrim Progress VPB30G 5-String G Banjo

Even at a much higher price, it would be really hard to fault the quality of these Pilgrim banjos; fit and finish is superb, while this closed-back model features a lovely burst finish on the mahogany back. The input of Pilgrim’s master instrument-designer Paul Tebbutt is evident, and it’s really exciting to see a great old brand revived for the players of today!
