So I wanted to upgrade from my Harley Benton BJO-35Pro 5 String to a slightly better open back banjo. I know that those banjos I mentioned still are on the cheap side, but the HB one is just horrible. So what do you think should I get from the banjos mentioned in the title? They are all proced under €200 used.
The Fender banjo comes with 2 coordinator rods, which might be nice. I just know, that all three manufacturers make somewhat solid guitars. I'd really like to know which one you'd pick, or if you know what would be best, out of these 3 options.

I've heard he lives in washington dc or maryland now, and ive tried everything i can think off to find him but if anybody could put me in contact with him I'd be super thankful. Dm me if you can help me!

One of my banjo heroes, Pete Seeger was born on this day in 1919. Here's a couple of my favorite banjo videos of his. Post your favorites please!

Hey guys,
Just new to tenor banjo. I can play guitar but now I’m dipping my toes into Irish banjo just wondering what are the best free/paid sites, apps, books etc to help Learn.

Is there any way to identify what brand/kind of banjo I've purchased? It's an open back I purchased to learn on from Facebook marketplace, so I'm not expecting much, just curious! Thanks!

Has anybody played a Huber banjo? I’ve thought about getting one (in the research phase). They sound so go online and just wanted to ask somebody that has actually played one if they’re worth the money
