Raven Series 6-String Acoustic-Electric Banjo w/Bag

This banjo is beautiful. I have waited twenty years to get one. The case is a great gig bag. The whole set up is light weight too. I am impressed.

Amazing Banjo! So glad I got this mid range banjo and didn't splurge on a more expensive ($1k+) one. Much louder than I thought it would be and has a beautiful tone. Love the black look. As a guitarist I wanted to get a 6 string banjo rather than relearn banjo chords. I did have to figure out the right place to put the bridge based in tuning the guitar and then setting up the intonation so it plays in tune up the neck. Narrow neck so you've got to file down your nails! Love that I can plug it in too when I'm playing live, right into a PA. This will be on my next studio song!

The quality of this instrument was very poor. Craftsmanship was also poor. The strings were way high on the fretboard. When I tried to return the instrument after only having it a few days, at first they tried to claim the instrument was damaged and would not refund me. Then after appealing, they accepted the return but charged me a $270.00 restocking fee that was not clearly stated before the purchase or during the return process. The manufacturer basically ripped me off for $270 for an instrument that I could not get a clear note up the neck on the fretboard. I've been a professional musician for most of my life and at 52 years old, I've never played such a poorly crafted instrument then charged $270.00 to test their product. I would not buy a single instrument from this company.
