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!!

Excellent beginner banjo. Stays in tune. Nice finish.

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

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

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!

Recieved this in a timely manner. This is the second Glarry instrument I have purchased. The 5 string bass was very nice all around. This Banjo has a couple of issues however. Overall very nice. There are two minor problems. One is the fret ends are a little rough. Not terrible and is an easy fix. There are three spots where the finish is less than ideal. Two spots look like there was a flaw in the wood on the sides of the resonator. Looks like they were filled with wood filler but then not sand ...

Two spots look like there was a flaw in the wood on the sides of the resonator. Looks like they were filled with wood filler but then not sanded out well. On the bottom when holding the instrument so not a big deal. Also on the resonator there are two spot where the top (part facing audience) where the finish looks like it was done by someone with little attention to detail. Again it isn't terrible but it would not have taken a lot of effort to do a better job. I am pleased overall and these issues are minor cosmetic items hardly noticable unless you look closely. Playability is very nice so for an inexpensive instrument you won't go wrong with one of these.
