I'm very pleased with my Grafton Clipper.The banjo is good quality and is set up carefully. Andy really knows what he's talking about and is very helpful.
I can't vouch for the Grafton 'cos I haven't tried it but I can for Andy. It took three visits with banjos going back and forth and me being a bit of a pain (always recommended) before he provided exactly what I was after. The reason it took so long was because I had an idea of the sound I wanted but didnt know how much that sound would cost. I had to up my initial budget. But he was fair, informative, competitively priced, (a little tight with the part exchange price, beware) 9/10 but more than that he's also fun, and a treat of a day out.

One of my students plays one of these:

and it seems and sounds like a very nice instrument for the price...plays well, well set up, doesnt feel "cheap".

I'm very pleased with the Grafton Clipper I got as a second instrument (to a fiddle) a year ago.

Re: graffton tenor banjos
I've had one - good value for money and a good stage instrument too
I had the basic "Clipper" then traded it in to Andy for a Goldtone
