I've been playing banjo for fifty years but as my right hand fingers don't work for picking or clawhammer anymore due to an overuse injury, I'm relearning to play left-handed. It's not a pre-war Gibson Granada, but it's a great banjo for the price. The pot is a plastic composite basically using the old Harmony design, but it's more carefully made and the resonator attachment (4 knurled screws) is better. The neck is much more attractive and better finished than the old Harmony and the frets are better (the Harmony used brass frets and a painted brown neck). On the "con " side, the 5th string peg needed to be reset (fortunately, it wasn't cemented in) clockwise a little to keep the fifth string from popping out of its nut (they use a standard right-handed 5th string peg and the peg is asymmetrical) and I plan to replace it with a Waverley peg. The other tuners do the job, but I'll probably replace them with a set of planetary pegs. The frets are a little square, but that's a matter of taste. The tone is as good as most banjos without a metal tone ring of some type and it's WAY lighter, nd less fragile, so it's handy to keep around even after I convert my good banjo to left-handed.
