sounds great accompanying my wife on the fiddle. has a very rich and warm tone. I put a John Balch goat skin head on it and it has plenty of volume but is nice and plunky.
Sound Rating: 9
The banjo was shipped from the shop. It was set up nicely. The bridge was not in place in order to remove tension for shipping but the head was marked. after placing the bridge, tightening the head and bringing the strings to tension the banjo just what i hoped for.
