Components

There are no cheap/weak parts on these banjo's. The Gotoh tuners are very good and I like the Hatfield ring with the Cox rim..... good combination. |

This is without a doubt the best banjo for the money being built. Stolen ? I would be calling Arthur to build another one if I could not get it back. I highly recommend these banjo's if You have never played one you should. |
