This is a really great product which was well thought out. This armrest is a very high quality product and was a breeze to install.

I had wanted an armrest for my Deering Goodtime for quite some time. While here on Banjo Hangout I came across the brief product description for this armrest along with a link to Little Mountain Music's website.

After reading their more detailed description I decided to purchase this armrest. They offer it in three different colors and in two different widths for the part that your arm rests on. Order processing and shipping were very quick and I received the product within four days of placing my order.

Installing the armrest is an extremely easy process. Remove the two hooks that will be used to attach and support the armrest. Insert each hook into the dovetail pins provided in the kit. Slide the dovetail head into the mounting groove machined into the underside of the armrest. Reconnect the two hooks and you're done. The height of the armrest is adjustable. There is a thumb screw that tightens the dovetail pin to the hook.

This whole process took me approximately four minutes to complete. All of the components fit well and the whole assembly went together easily. Doug Campbell is the main contact at Little Mountain Music and you couldn't ask for a nicer person to deal with. I had a question after using the product for a week so I called them. I left a voice message and Doug called me back within minutes. This was really refreshing experience after dealing with some of the megacorportations out there.

In short I couldn't be happier with this purchase and I can heartily recommend this product to anyone who wants to add an armrest to their banjo or replace an existing armrest. Little Mountain Music, keep up the good work.
