One of the best entry level banjos you can get. I also own a Deering goodtime artisan special, however I tend to reach for this one alot when looking to practice as its not as loud, and very light in weight. Came set up perfectly, just tuned it up and was playing a moment later. I find it great for playing clawhammer style and also when playing bluegrass style by yourself, probably won't do for a bluegrass jam though as its not loud enough unless you mic it, but that's just how openbacks are. If you want a great quality banjo that's fun to learn on or travel with this is it. Sounds great too, sure it doesn't have all the fancy pearl inlays and colour options as a higher end Deering but it is a great banjo. Only thing I would change on this model is add some 5th string capo spikes on the 7th,9th,and 10th fret
