Sound
|
Wonderful banjo for bluegrass playing. Love the light weight. Loud, good tone, very good banjo. Sound rating if rated for banjos in that price range would be 10 |

Setup
|
The banjo was set up as I requested. I later changed to 1/2 bridge. String action is perfect now. |

Appearance

Blonde finish, simple. But that helps keep the cost down. |

Customer Service

Warranty is one year, but at this price I am surprised it even has a warranty. A couple emails to the company were answered the next day. |

Components

Nothing outstanding except it is an excellent banjo in a price range anyone could buy. It could easily sell for much more. |

Overall Comments
|
They keep the price down by skipping all the options. I'm adding an armrest and I will install side dots. I think it is good that they sell a no frills banjo, in order to sell a good quality banjo and a price anyone can buy. Frills can always be added. |
