They all seem small to me. For build quality it certainly seems like a fair price for a nice banjo. Someday, I will become a little proficient on banjo and be able to have a better feel for what I am trying.
Yes, that's actually one of the things I like about his banjos. They have thicker necks, almost like a guitar. Glad you got a chance to try some banjos out. Now go buy one and get to picking!
