Solid hardware. Machined screws, double support rods, sealed tuning pegs, 24 head clamps, engraved arm rest, etc. Very durable, should easily last a lifetime. |

Everything that is highly recommended on top-end banjos is present with the BJ50. The unit ships with two adjustment tools for making minor adjustments to the neck and other screws around the resonator. |

I absolutely love my BJ50. It is very well built and for under $800 it is a very fine instrument. |
