OMG my fingers are going to hurt tonight. This thing is LOUD compared to my Deering Goodtime. Wonder if the wife will notice
Anyone else’s arrive today or recently??
Better pictures for sure to come but can’t stop playing right now
My "twanger" showed up today

Aren’t they just gorgeous? I got mine last Friday. Posted a video last night playing it.
I liked the tone of the factory strings OK, but they were a bit heavy for my taste. When I put a set of GHS PF140s on it, it just came alive! Plus it’s so much easier to play with lighter strings.
I’m so glad I got in on the first run. The Twanger is a BEAST!

Same here @stingray72…mine arrived today too! A NEW BANJO! Actually left work early today. 
I have a Deering Goodtime too (3rd hand), and I’m with you…The Twanger IS LOUD by comparison…and HEAVY! It’s #29 of 36, and it’s a beauty like yours. The tuners sure are smoother and easier to adjust. The inlay work on the fret board is beautiful, and there are dot markers on top of the neck. I love your floor stand, by the way.
I followed @Mark_Rocka 's advice (thanks for the tip, Mark) and put on a set of GHS PF140’s as well, and a new strap. The factory installed strings were a lot heavier than I normally play. This monster will take some time to adjust to, but it sure sounds nice. A NEW Banjo! I’m all dressed up and nowhere to go but up. 
Played now for about an hour, and I’m already in need of a break (fingers and back). May need to tinker with the strap some more. Did I mention I got a BRAND NEW BANJO?

@Treblemaker & @xmark - I bought it when banjo.com was local to me in Atlanta. They’ve since moved shops way down I-85

I agree @Mark_Rocka it’s time, no more excuses now that Missy owns a Twanger. Time to stop polishing it and start playing it.

Hi @BanjoBen does the Twanger have have a Gold Tone model number ? Is it only being released through your dealership. as a limited issue or will it go to dealerships world wide?
It will eventually go to all Gold Tone dealers, including Europe, with model OB-3. However, I’ve secured exclusivity for a while. It will be sometime in early 2020 before you see them offered through other dealers. If you do see them before, please let me know 
Ha! and our African noses too

Hey, if you guys love your Twangers, I bet it would help Ben out if you went over and left a glowing review about it in the General Store.
