Bishline: Rosemary Custom

Submitted by freddyvee on 9/1/2017

Where Purchased: Bishline Banjos

Year Purchased: 2017
Price Paid: 3780 ($US)

Sound

I play a mixture of bluegrass and folk and I think this banjo will prove to be very versatile in expressing various styles of music. It can be sweet and mellow or it can pound those hard driving bluegrass railroad spikes.

Sound Rating: 10

Setup

The banjo was set up perfectly by Rob Bishline. No tinkering necessary.

Setup Rating: 10

Appearance

This thing is crazy awesome beautiful! Mahogany neck, quilted mahogany resonator, black powder coated tension hoop and flange contrasted by gold plated hardware, amber tuners, everything just as I specified. I can not find a single flaw in workmanship.

Appearance Rating: 10

Reliability

All components seem to be top notch. Playability is super. I find myself having to sing a little louder cause this banjo wants to be heard!

Reliability Rating: 10

Customer Service

The folks at Bishline Banjos are great. They go above and beyond to make sure you are a happy customer. I hope Rob and company continue to make these high quality banjos for many years to come. It's what this country needs...... less fussin', more banjos.
