ADM 5-String Banjo Large

ADM 5-String Banjo Large

This product is kinda misnamed. It takes its title from an Amazon product that has both a large and a tenor size. The large is what is actually normally $~200. The tenor is normally $~100. So this isn’t really 50% off advertised; it’s far closer to 0% off as it is the tenor size.

Unfortunately what arrived doesn’t play the correct notes on the first few frets. For example second string B’s first fret note should be a C but I was getting a B#. B’s second fret should be a C# but I was getting a C. This pattern of being off by half steps continued with the other first four strings.
This was after triple checking my tuning with the digital tuner and comparing to audio clips of scales; something g is just physically off with the frets the top of the neck.

I’ve filed for a return as defective.
