Well the banjer I bought some time ago is a Top-of-the-Line model. Name on the head sez, 'KINGSTON' and I know it's top line cause the feller done tol' me so! He give me the three strings what come with it free o' charge! I think he was a little overpriced but I kinda liked the banjer and the feller let me talk him down in price. I play it about every day and it was worth every bit of the $60 I give 'im!
