Testimonial

Purchased this beautiful Glen Rose banjo back in the spring of 2004 from Donald Zepp. He has just received it in and a friend handed it to me, on a night that I was there for a lesson, and said, "try this." The beautifully made neck felt very comfortable in my hand and the sound was very sweet. Pondered over it during the night and called Zepp the next day and told him I would like to buy it. I'm a beginner clawhammer student and will be holding on to this lovely Glen Rose for a long, long time. Thank you Chuck, it found a good home!
