banjo head, frosted
It had one slight edge chip missing on white frosted finish. I am unable to use it however because the tone ring (did I get that right?) on the no-name banjo I am repairing for brother-in-law is a little too big diameter. It's a welded and chromed ring and I couldn't modify without major (?) damage. I will be reusing the old head. Your YouTube videos are VERY helpful.

Mostly good
Itās usually trouble free to order whatever I need from here, and my order for a replacement head was taken care of promptly and courteously. Unfortunately, I needed some other parts which they donāt have in stock and have no clue when they will be in stock. Thatās a bit aggravating.

Good Products/ Helpful people
I have bought 2 banjos from Deering along with several accessories orders. Never had a problem. Always quality products and helpful people. Gotta replace the head on my old Sierra.
