Playing today with my Pisgah 12" Walnut Tubaphone and my Bart Reiter Galax 11" Maple/Mahogany, what a wonderfully noticeable difference in tone! The Pisgah is richer and more resonant but the Reiter Galax is more punchy and in your face. If I had to choose one or the other, it would be the Pisgah for its overall tone and feel but both banjos are nice to have.
