Crafters of Tennessee Classic Mahogany Reviews

Crafters of Tennessee Classic Mahogany submitted 7/3/2008 Submitter snoopy (see all reviews from this person) Where Purchased Guitar Center Nashville Year Purchased 2008 Price Paid 2000 ($US) (bought USED) Sound The banjo sounds like a dream (I play bluegrass). I played the Earl Scruggs Gibson at the Store in the mall and this is the only banjo I've ever heard that is comparible to that. Sound Rating 10 Setup The Banjo was set up well by Guitar Center. I am no expert on setting up a banjo, but I do know that it sounds great. Setup Rating 9 Appearance The banjo looks great and it is not overly frilly. The only issue is that it needs to be polished a bit. Appearance Rating 9 Reliability This banjo, like all good banjos is heavy and appears to be made to last. Reliability Rating 9 Customer Service I called the guys at Crafters just to get info on the banjo and they were really great. How often can you call the manufacturer and just talk to them about your banjo for 20 minutes. Customer Service 10 Components Components seem top notch Components Rating 10 Overall Comments This is the nicest banjo I've ever played or heard. I'm lucky to have found one that was even affordable. I would throw myself off a bridge if it got stolen. Overall Rating 10

Crafters of Tennessee Classic Mahogany submitted 8/3/2006 Submitter michaeljameskyler (see all reviews from this person) Where Purchased Year Purchased Price Paid over $2000 historic exchange rates / currency converter Sound Has got alot of punch to it, with good bass. When you capo from frets 2 to 5 it sounds alot like a RB-75 Crowe, and almost just like the one one Crowe`s CD. Very very clear Sound Rating 10 Setup N/A Setup Rating not rated Appearance This one`s gold plated, but that`s not standard. But even if it were standard nickel it would look great. Appearance Rating 10 Reliability Time will tell, but so far, no complaints. Reliability Rating 10 Customer Service N/A Customer Service not rated Components Everything is top of the line. Components Rating 10 Overall Comments There are alot of great banjos you can get in this price range. (2400`s) I`ve played several Crafters of Tennessee banjos and they all have a great distinct sound. This is a cheaper model but sounds as great as the rest. Overall Rating 10
