“Playing this banjo is such a joy, fascination, and source of great contentment! My wife says it sounds almost ‘harp-like or angelic’ and that ‘it must be surely inspiring to you to play’. Tank you for your practical philosophy in making such an instrument where the emphasis is on playing well, sounding good, and being affordable. Your efforts have helped me learn the love of banjo. It’s like being part of a good extended family. Locating and playing some of your instruments has been a great quest with true rewards, resulting in finding an instrument that connects so well with my musical interests and helps to express and make meaningful musical connections with others. Tanks again, and keep up the good cause.” -T.R.
“I’m really inspired by the full
beautiful tone of
this banjo and the speedy invitations it offers to try
new things. I’m hoping for a lot
of songs to come out of it and for
good company at exciting gigs”
-Chris Luedecke
