I've been playing many different stringed instruments all of my life....except the banjo. This banjo is fun to play and for the price, a phenomenal deal! This banjo is very playable and after the first tuning, only small adjustments have been needed. Is this a road instrument? Probably not, if you are a seasoned player. For someone who is learning the banjo, it's an awesome first time deal! The only thing I would suggest is to throw in a gig bag for shipping safety. The box my banjo came in was ...

The box my banjo came in was untaped and was not protecting the banjo at all. Thank you Glarry, another great deal for my music room!!

This is the first Banjo I have ever owned. I am just learning to play. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on something I wasn't sure I would like. This Banjo came in very good shape and quality looks good. I sure there are better ones out there but you can't beat it for the price.

Love my banjo but I still can't play, practice makes perfect though (still trying) the sound from this banjo is great even though I can't really play

I placed an order on 4/2/2021 on 4/5/2021 finally get a tracking number so I check it label created but not picked up. 4/6/2021 not picked up 4/7/2021 in route to a ups facility. 5 days and has not made it to a ups facility yet. I do reviews of affordable musical instruments and inform my 5000+ local viewers of what companies to go to and from whom to stay clear of when buying. So far it's not looking good on Glarry just hope the 5 string banjo is not damaged.

So I received an email from a manager Lin that was very helpful with my order. Turns out that item was lost in transit from glarry to me by ups. Lin was very nice and refunded my money with no problem. Even made a follow up email to make sure that I received my refund. Very honest company that can't blame them for delivery service not doing their end of the job. Thank you again Lin. Sorry that I can't raise my stars due to it will not allow my to modify. But if I could it would be 5 stars for cu ...

Unfortunately I can't review this, I got it as a gift. The son in law seems pretty happy with it.

Banjo arrived in less than 1 week. Good beginner product tubes up well and sounds very good. Varnish on neck is a little too spotted but other than that great banjo for the price. Customer service is impossible to reach on the telephone and the tracking data was not timely or accurate until it shipped, seems label was created very early in the process.

Arrived QUICK; looks great, feels substantial not cheap. Time will tell, but it seems to be a quality instrument. If you ever want to send me a free instrument to try out, feel free!

I'm learning to play it now. It sounds just like the ones on the radio. I can't be more impressed, thank you!
