does anyone that owns this case use it on a firebird with banjo tuners?

it seemed to work really well on the Ibanez BTB I had put them on. fit right in with no issues. I don't know about exact models it'll fit. I'm not a luthier just a player.

John,I bought the case to replace a tattered one that came with a four string tenor banjo I was repairing. I do not have nay measurements... sorry. Good quality case for the money, though.Frank

I use it on a banjo, there is a sticky side on the base, but it's not very functional. I rigged up some tape to keep it stable and the nodes. Not sure how it would work for a harp. The pick up itself works very great

All I can say is that I use it for my Yamaha FG 180 and it works like a charm. I do not recall the exact measurements, but if you just look up the dimensions of an FG 180, you'll know. It is a solid case, so I hope it works out for you.

It fits an open back really well, but I think it could work for a resonator banjo too. Might be a tight squeeze, though, depending on the size of the resonator.

My banjo was set up almost perfectly from Amazon. All I did was adjust the bridge a bit back and forth +/- 1/2" to get close to intonation and then tweak it by moving the upper or lower part of the bridge so that after about 10 minutes it was perfectly intonated. BTW, it was packed very well from the factory/Amazon. I was very happy with my first decent banjo and probably could owned it for a lifetime, but as it is: so many banjos; so little time!

Your best bet would be to call an online retailer such as Musicians Friend, Sweetwater, or Zzounds, tell them that you are interested in buying the case but you need to be sure that your instrument fits inside of it first and ask them to test fit it for you.

Yep. Most resonator banjos will have a way of detaching the resonator plate from the back as well.

I'm not sure, it depends on the width of your bridge. It seems designed for a normal 5 string bridge. the padded area of the mute is 6mm (2 3/8") long and slides over the bridge. My bridge is 7mm wide and it works for that. It mutes the banjo well, but it increases the sustain.

It is not a good fit. The head stock will need better support. Mine is stored in this case and it is better that the gig bag it came with. I should have bought a better case but I will make do.

I got mine on eBay from "Cleveland pawn" for $675 and it was shipped in the nice new "Guardian" banjo case, not the high quality expensive case, but not a junk neither.

The case is made to fit a 14"resonator.If you want to use it with out you should use foam rubber to fill in the gap around the banjo.

I actually did not get a soft case, rather I had an old cardboard type case for a standard 5 string banjo and use that. It should fit in most standard banjo cases.

The Artist pickup works great on Banjo's, Ukes, and such. It puts out good solid tone with a good volume level. Hope you enjoy it!!!! Dean

I ultimately bought this very banjo from a local shop rather than through Amazon. My guess would be that it's not perfectly in tune out of the box. Banjos being wood instruments fluctuate with temperature and frequently go out of tune even in the course of playing them. Watch a professional banjo player and watch them tune their instrument in the middle of a show when no one else has to. Otherwise there is nothing to put together.
