Setup

Kingstowne Acoustic did a really nice job, but I thinned out the bridge to better suit my tastes. Not a knock on the set up, just needed a little tweaking. |

The inlay is awesome, the color is awesome. The Remo Renaissance head color really sets it apart from the others I tested. |

Kingstowne Acoustic set up and checked everything prior to purchase. I had to wait awhile for the banjo to come in, but it was worth the wait. |

The banjo was set up ok, but I reset the Bridge for my standards. I also re-tweaked the head, A simple intruement to adjust. |

This instruement is gorgous to look at. The gold Hardware and accented Tone of Light gold Stain Set it apart from others. The head is Aged to give it that Authentic old look. I found no major flaws or bad inlay work, and was happy with all the extra care in detail. |
