Sound
|
The banjo sounds really great, the sounds was more full and louder than my older low-tier banjo. |

Setup
|
I don't know what to say. I expected the banjo to be fully set up since it all came in one big box anyways. I had to tighten some screws which was really tiresome, and some of the other adjustable things won't fit.
(the character 4 is because of musiciansfriend.com, not the banjo) |

Appearance
|
Delicious maple wood makes great sound, but it's really heavy compared to my previous banjo which I can't say for sure is made of wood at all, it could be plastic for all I know... |

Reliability
|
It has the appearance and durability of an artisans craft. Although it's really heavy so I wouldn't carry it around places. |

I do not know enough about banjo components to judge on this matter, but it all looks decent enough. |

Do not order from musiciansfriend.com. They do not handle their instruments with care, nor provide normal human customer service. |
