(More customer reviews)when i received the banjo i was immediately worried, i knew it was one of the last two in stock so the chances of a problem were high. i was right. there was a deep gash in the inner box the width of the box. when i pulled the banjo out of that box it had a dent in the head, about the size of a dime. it came with no instructions on how to set up the bridge(i'm a first-timer and it would have been nice to learn from Saga instead of Banjohangout.org, the DVD shows you how to start tuning and playing but not setup) after i figured that out and started tuning a chip of plastic fell off of the fake mother-of-pearl fifth string tuner. even before i added superglue it was still functional and it sounds fine in spite of the dented head so i didn't bother sending it back. all in all its not a bad instrument and i like playing it having come from a guitar background but somewhere between chinese workmanship and shoddy transport of what should have been labeled fragile it became a not so great instrument. just the same for a little handywork(if you're good with handtools the head is an easy fix) it can easily be a decent one. its a good buy for a firstimer for the price. i'm not as sure that i'd buy another instrument from these folks though, especially since the DVD covers every other instrument in the Saga Appalachian line. so buyer should definitely beware.
