I bought this beginner banjo kit for my best friend, and she loves it! It's obviously not supurb quality like a $3000.00 one, but it's a perfect learner banjo. The sound is pretty darn good. And, the banjo is beautiful! That it comes with a strap, pitch pipe, and even a case makes it an even greater deal. The only problem is that if you're not sure about wanting the banjo, you will have to pay for shipping, plus shipping to send it back, plus a 25% restocking fee, which will end up that you have paid about $100.00 for nothing! SO, make sure you really want it!! I highly recommend this product for anyone wanting to learn how to play banjo but doesn't have thousands of dollars to spend on it. Have fun!

I bought this banjo about a year ago, and use it on a consistent basis. The Banjo itself plays well, and has a great classic sound. The resonator is surprisingly sturdy for the cost, and creates a powerful twang.This instrument stays in tune surprisingly well, just be sure to set the floating bridge correctly (this can be tricky, and you might want to use a local music shop to get it right).The soft case is cheap, and my zipper has already failed. I'm giving 5 stars to the instrument, not the case (which I would give 2 stars).The strap is fine, but I usually play without it.Things you'll want on top of this kit:A few extra sets of strings- these are surprisingly cheap, and these skinny strings break pretty easy.A clip on tuner- the pitch pipe works ok, but tuning the high-register notes by ear is difficult. This is the tuner I use, and it works like gang-busters:http://www.amazon.com/Snark-Instrument-Clip-On-Chromatic-Tuner/dp/B003VWKPHCFinger picks- most banjo players use them, and it gives a cleaner sound than using your fingertips. There are metal and plastic finger picks, use whatever works best for you.YouTube videos- there are videos on all sorts of techniques out there. Start with learning your rolls (plucking with your right hand) and chords (playing with your left hand) and go from there.Remember: Tuning is GDGBDEnjoy!
