Been a guitar player since 6th grade,I'm 47 now and have never played a banjo.Ordered this for X-Mas and was suprised how well it was made.The brigde was not in place and after finding the sweet spot on the head and changing the cheap strings to Ernie Ball Reg. slinkys 10 ga. it plays good and sound good,bright and banjo sounding twang.Its worth what I payed for it......

I am a professional musician and a collector of stringed instruments. Initially, I was hesitant to purchase the Rogue 6 string banjo. I am glad that I did! The bangitar arrived in a few days, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the instrument. Although, setting it up took some tweaking. The placement of the bridge, tightening the head and a neck adjustment were critical for correct intonation. Once adjusted, the banjo was easily tuned, and it sounded good. I then attached a Dean Markley adhesive pickup, plugged into a L.R. Baggs Venue acoustic DI to a Fishman Loudbox Mini, and I was pickin' and grinning. The Rogue 6 string banjo is a fine instrument, a great value and a nice addition to my collection!

Does what I wanted

| Review By: William Miller | 8 months, 1 week ago

7 people out of 7 found this review helpful

Features:

Much better hardware than I expected for the price. I have an old Kay Tenor Banjo from the late 50's. This is much better made actually.

Quality:

Beautiful finish and cherry stain. Binding on neck and body. Nice attention to detail. Could probably use better tuners but these are much better than the cheap banjos of yester-year. The action arrived high but was an easy fix and now plays like a dream.

Value:

For the price, amazing.

Overall:

Had to adjust the action, otherwise no problem. People that have complained about this instrument need to know what they are getting. DO NOT expect this instrument to take the place of a 5 string banjo. If you are interested in bluegrass or old timey music, do yourself a favor and learn 5 string. I bought this because I love finger style country blues, and early swing (or New Orleans style ragtime). This thing is great for these types of applications without having to learn Tenor Banjo. Think Tom Waits, or Squirrel Nut Zippers type of sounds, not Bluegrass.

I received this as a gift and I feel sorry for my friend who paid for it. Looks good, but it is not well made at all. I cannot buy any parts for it as simple as the tuning buttons. Cannot tune it, bridge is a mess. Really looked forward to playing and using this. Save your money and get a good banjo that you can get parts for.

I have wanted this banjo for years and now I realized I have wasted a lot of my time. do not buy this instrument. You will need alot of skill and time to make it playable unless you have luthier skills.
