    I've had this been for over a year now and it sounds absolutely wonderful! It has a great tone up the neck. When I ordered it November 2021 it came about a week after and in great condition. I use it almost every day and I use it regularly in shows that are performed in shows and gigs. Would definitely recommend for a great banjo under $1000!!
