I just put this on the forum page, but I wanted make sure that I could share my thoughts with everyone on the Hangout.
I recently purchased a custom Zeus banjo with a 40 hole rim and I just just couldn't get it to sound right. Tom had sent me a new pot with the frosted white head and I it still wasn't the sound that I was looking for. Tom asked me if I could meet him in Pa. so that he could set-up the banjo himself. He was on his way back home from the Merle Fest. I met Tom last night in Philly and he spent over two hours going over my banjo so it sounded exactly the way I requested. He also went over each set-up procedure with me. So it was also educational for me.
To say the banjo sounds awesome is an understatement, it is full and rich. It is neither dull nor bright. It is really perfect. I also own a Stelling Crusader and I would hate to pick but the Nechville is just as rich and full but has a better low end. The Nechville neck is much easier to play than the Stelling. Anyone looking for a banjo should definitely play a Nechville before they buy another banjo. It will really surprise the people that are hooked on Stellings, Gibsons, and Hubers.
I don't know of any business person that would drive hours out of their way like Tom Nechville did for me. There was no monetary gain for him. He spent two hours of his personal time to help me out. He is a special person and really a great guy.
Sincerely,
Jule Dolci
