Big Bang for the Buck I took a gamble on this and I’m glad it payed off. Obviously, it’s made in China. Virtually all banjos this inexpensive are made in China. And because of that, you have to set up the bridge (instructions are included). So after that, it plays like a dream. Other reviewers have complained about stuff like high action, warped neck, and frets needing to be filed down, but I didn’t have any problems there. Maybe I got lucky? I don’t know. The tone itself is good for the price, and the resonator is…
Nice instrument that needs professional setup to enjoy. For the money this is not a bad instrument. Just keep in mind that it needs to be setup by someone that knows what they’re doing. Mine needed the neck adjusted, head tightened and tuned and the bridge positioned. It also had a couple of loose frets and most of the frets needed leveling. Lose the factory strings immediately. If you’re willing to spend the extra money this is a fun instrument. If not you’re probably not going to be satisfied with it’s performance. You also may very well…
Great instrument!
