I started playing banjo when this product arrived in the mail. It is light weight, has great tone, and is a great banjo to start on. I love it and can't see buying another banjo as long as I live. I don't see how I could improve on this one. Great product.

Comments about Washburn B9 Banjo:
Overall I am happy with the purchase. I am a professional musician who likes to learn various instruments and the banjo was next on my list. For a beginner/learner it is great. Be advised though, I highly recommend you take it to a shop to have it set up, unless you have experience with instrument setup. Out of the box, the bridge is not set (so as the head isn't damaged in shipping I'm sure), the action is high and both the saddle and nut(s) needed adjusting to get rid of fret buzz and make it more playable.
If you are a beginner, you can't go wrong for the price. I imagine I will eventually want one of higher quality, but it suits my needs for learning nicely at this time.
Comments about Washburn B9 Banjo:
I bought this banjo for my husband for his birthday and he absolutely fell in love with it. he has never owned a banjo before and he is very eager to learn on this one. it came without a scratch and i am very pleased. however it is not shipped very carefully. it was shipped with just a few clumps of paper and a sheet over it. but it didn't have a scratch. and it is a very nice banjo.
Comments about Washburn B9 Banjo:
Build quality is good for the money. Go on youtube and look at some how to set up banjo videos. It's not that difficult. Tighten the head and new strings is all it took to get a great sound.
