Sound


awesome banjo. very nice woody popping sound. full and very responsive,
and loud enough for me. equipped with l.r.baggs banjo pickup(mounted into bridge),
and it actually works. very natural sound amplified.(ask olīDanny, if you donīt buy that)
canīt imagine a piece, that this banjo couldnīt handle.

Setup


the banjo made a long journey to finland but it was almost in tune,
when it arrived. i asked rob to make the action low, and he sure did.
very fast and comfortable neck.
no setup changes needed.
