Meet Ed Weber - Pro Set Up Technician for BanjoTeacher.com
Ed worked for Gibson Banjos for 25 years starting in the late 80's and helped design and build Gibson Banjos during that time. I feel very blessed to have him, not only as a highly skilled pro but as a friend and co-worker. Ed takes great pride in everything he does and it really shows in the tremendous feed back and satisfaction I receive back from my banjo customers. You can count on Ed to give you the very best banjo set up when ordering this banjo from Banjoteacher.com
The OB-3RF by Gold Tone comes with lifetime warranty which is TRANSFERRABLE if you sell the banjo later too.
