Caraya 4-String Mahogany Resonator Banjo with stand and Free Gifts - BJ004J8

Arrived well packed and in perfect condition! The wait felt long, but considering the trip was half way around the world l thought it was pretty dog gone quick! Came with a carry bag and tools that were not expected. Already changed to high g Nygut strings for clawhammer style playing. Looks like a little brother to my Goodtime 5 string banjo. Thanks for the good price and fast shipping!
