Pisgah Custom Dobson Professional Banjo Unboxing & Review

This is an unboxing of a semi-custom banjo that I purchased from Pisgah. The backstory is that I originally purchased this from Bernunzio's Music online, then I sent it off to Pisgah to get some additional "flair" added to it, including a bone nut, fifth string spikes, a brass plate on the neck, John Balch calf skin head, armadillo armrest, and a bunch of other accessories. I accidentally called the head the "bridge" and the armrest the "tailpiece" in the video...sorry about that lol! Anyway, I just wanted to show off this banjo, which turned out really nice after the customizations.

Thanks for this--it's a beautiful instrument. As I'm considering a Pisgah, I wish more folks would do such nice in-depth reviews of their banjos. This really helps!

Informative video and nice playing...

Beautiful banjo. What strings does it come with from factory? Did you find the nylagut strings to wok out?

[@jdsmusic233]

@@liliaveitia5854 I just have the standard old-time clawhammer strings that PBCO sells on their website. That is probably what they put on right out of the factory. I actually haven’t used the nylgut strings despite having this for a few years now since I’ve liked the steel strings.

Doesn't say much for Pisgah quality control with all the issues out of the case.
