I was looking for a fretless banjo that wouldn't break the bank and what I recieved was a banjo that has incredible tone with a rich clear sound.
Sound Rating: 10
When the banjo arrived, all I had to do was set the bridge where they marked it in pencil on the head and set the desired tuning.
Setup Rating: 10
I purchased a 12" Walnut banjo with brass hardware, a folk heal and side dot brass inlay. The banjo itself is flawless and more than met my expectatations. The paddle head has a nice inlay on it.
Appearance Rating: 10
The brass hardware is very sturdy and the finish I believe will last for the life of the banjo.
Reliability Rating: 10
I was very pleased with how helpful they were and I was pleased with how quickly they responded to my questions.

I would have to say that I am completely satisfied by their overall craftsmanship and impressed by the wood they use and overall setup.
Components Rating: 10
If you are someone looking for a reasonable priced banjo that is all hand made, I would really suggest you email Pisgah and discuss the various option they have to offer. They also have a great wedsite that is worth checking out and they have posted several videos on youtube.
