Pictures of the MaestroTone 250 banjo
In addition to the musicyo ad:
Heavy (12.5 lbs for the whole banjo, 8.5 lbs for the pot w/o resonator and neck);
Loud, good sounding banjo (I am not an expert, though);
24 brackets;
18 hole tone ring;
2 coordinator rods;
Truss rod;
1-piece flange;
Planetary tuners (ratio 8:1), geared 5th tuner;
Inlay of the 22nd fret (rectangular w/ MaestroTone written into it) and
inlays of the peghead are Mother of Pearl,
Hearts and Flowers inlays are plastic, but nice work;
Wood finish is very nice, chrome hardware is OK quality;
Laminated resonator, laminated rim (probably maple?);
Resonator and tailpiece are attached to the flange;
Well built, I think.
