Great sounding beginner banjo
tugboatcaptain 12.07.2024
The composite looks good, the wood too. It sounds great.
I got this banjo in the key of A because I like to play 2 finger thumb lead/old time/fiddle tunes and they're often in A or D and I can downtune to the "regular" key of G without problem.

Things to keep in mind: one, if you want an arm rest, there's only one that fits (I asked Gold Tone myself), the Little Mountain Armrest (which is nowhere to be found). The Gold Tone one that says "fits's all" does not!
Two, banjo's are loud. Stuff something behind the head. Easier and cheaper than ordering a mute (I did not like how the Iucci mute makes the banjo sound like a guitar, it's like all the overtones are gone).
