5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive, understandable, useful guide to banjo repair, September 6, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Complete Banjo Repair: The Setup, Maintenance, and Restoration of the Five-String Banjo (Paperback)

Starting with an overview of the instrument, the book then proceeds with detailed instructions on set-up and repair, Novices will not be threatened by the contents; experts will not be offended.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book in many ways, May 25, 2004

"clark3000" (San Jose, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Complete Banjo Repair: The Setup, Maintenance, and Restoration of the Five-String Banjo (Paperback)

Not only is this book packed with info on banjo repair, the author gives the best (but brief) explaination of equal temperament I've read. This book is a gem!
