I've got a galaxy phantom, and I'd be willing to write one. How long are you looking for?

Thanks, just 2-4 sentences and I'll use them as space allows. Appreciate it!

Al, I'd be happy to. I can't say enough positive things about my 2007 maple galaxy phantom, my little banjovie, or the service and staff at Nechville.

My Nechville Classic is a very versatile banjo and it is definitely a keeper. I have a turbo module that I can swap out and then use the banjo in a rock/blues/country band I play in or swap it back to its normal setup and use it in the bluegrass gospel band I am with. Great banjo!

I have a 2011 Walnut Galaxy Phantom and would gladly contribute. It really is wonderful.
At 7 lbs. my Walnut Galaxy Phantom is the best looking, best sounding, most comfortable to play banjo imaginable. Working with Tom was a joy. Whenever I had a question his desire was to make my experience memorable and exactly what I wanted. Making it perfect for me w

The last sentence should have read,"Making it perfect for me was the goal, and it was achieved!"

Oh, I didn't realize we were supposed to write our testimonial as a comment.
"From the moment I saw my first Nextar I was completely hooked on Nechville banjos. These instruments are both wildly innovative while maintaining a traditional sound. The look and feel is one of exquisite workmanship and design making these instruments both beautiful to look at and a joy to play!
I own four banjos in including a Gibson Mastertone and the *only* banjos I play are my Cascade Phantom and Meteor."

I'm an astrophysics graduate student, so the moment I laid eyes on the Galaxy Phantom, I knew I had to have one. Luckily for me, Nechville banjos sound even better than they look. Tom Nechville has been incredibly helpful, even after I bought my banjo, helping me set it up and further customize it until it looked and sounded exactly the way I wanted.

I bought my Saturn at the Wenatchee Bluegrass festival and am more than satisfied. It draws such attention not only due to it's unique look but it's great sound and ease of playing. Of course watching Tom go through it for me whenever I take it to the River City festival is a treat as well that I wasn't prepared for. Keep up the good work Nechville!

I bought my Nechville Vintage because I wanted a classic looking banjo that takes advantage of modern possibilities. It sounds fantastic, has the most playable neck I've ever touched, and weighs less than other banjos. Nechville is clearly a company that respects tradition but refuses to be held back by it.

I played and researched many banjos including Dearing, Gibson, Prucha and Stealth before deciding on my Nechville. Ultimately, I felt that Nechville offered the greatest value in a quality instrument. I have been pleased to see that Nechville's quality equipment is backed up by superior customer service. I will never forget the time I was having a small pesky issue with my Phantom. Taking a chance, I called the Nechville shop at 6:30PM on a Friday night only to have the phone answered by Tom Nechville. He then proceeded to walk me through removing the neck, tightening a bolt, and replacing the neck. All over the phone on a Friday evening with the builder! AMAZING! I am completely hooked, I own two Nechville and see no reson to go anywhere else for any of my banjo needs.

Tom made my Athena model just the way I wanted it, using many of his suggestions once he knew my style of playing. This is one of the most responsive and playable banjos I have ever held in my hands. It is very much alive and seems to anticipate what I ask it to do. You can't ask any more from any instrument. The best purchasing decision I've made in a while. --Frank Eastes (banjoy on BHO)

Thanks, everyone. These will be all that fit in the space allowed. I'll post a link to the new newsletter when it is posted online next week.
