Very rich sounding, a huge improvement on the GoodTime Classic II-of course. This is a professional level banjo in the hands of an amateur.
Sound Rating: 9
All I had to do was tune it up a bit, did not take much. Since I am a beginner I can't imagine fiddling with anything, leaving it all stock, no need to mess with Mother Nature.
