Old Time / Clawhammer (well trying anyway).
A very nice plunky sound - which is just what I was after.
Sound Rating: 10
All I had to do was to insert the bridge, at the marked location.
As for the action, Andy knew what I wanted to play on it, so it has been set-up to suit.
Setup Rating: 10
This Banjo doesn't scream out 'look at me'. But then that is not what I wanted. It's all about the sounds. A true wolf in sheeps clothing.
Appearance Rating: 10
From what I can see, this Banjo is absolutely rock solid.
Reliability Rating: 10
I had previously dealt with 'Andy Banjo', when I previously purchsed a Gold Tone Long Neck. As always, the customer service was first rate. There is not many companies, where you can order something at 17:00 and get it at 07:30 the next morning. Brilliant!

All of the Hardware. looks like it will outlast myself. Andy is well known for building only quality Banjos.
Components Rating: 10
I can not recommend this company enough. This is the only one that I will ever use. 1st Class Instruments matched by a 1st Class Customer Service. The price that I paid also included 5th String Capo Spikes, Capo for the 4 long strings, 2 sets of string, Hard-Shell Case (you don't get much better than that!).
