This really is a quite profound and brilliant book written by a master but one who has a real sense of what's possible

How to Set Up the Best Sounding Banjo

One gets the feeling that Mr. Siminoff pushes these books out quickly, simply to make a living.
The book briefly covers most areas but always leaves you wanting more, and questioning how much is fact and how much merely opinion.
The saving grace is the fact that he might be the only one to attempt to place this complex subject in a book of only 65 pages.
