Customer Service 10 Components All the components seems to be adequate so far...no complaints... Components Rating 10 Overall Comments For the price you can't ask for a nicer banjo. I've had my eye on this one for a long time and finally got one and would recommend it to anyone looking for a moderatly priced banjo. I just keep picking it up and playing it and I guess you could call it a love affair. Again, for the money you can't go wrong. Overall Rating 10
