Sound


I play bluegrass and this banjo has a bright sound. Extremely loud and powerful. A well respected instrument technican in Toronto said, and I quote"you've got quite a weapon there".

I contacted Rob Bishline after my purchase and he sent me the nicest e mail. I am confident Rob will provide the best cutomer service available.

Overall Comments


I spent the afternoon at Elderly playing every banjo in the place. I kept going back to the Bishline Classic. It was head and shoulders the best 5 string in the store.
