An open-back banjo with a deeper 4" rim, the depth of a minstrel banjo, is what story teller and Grammy award-winner, David Holt has been playing since 1988. Requests for one like his inspired the David Holt Tree of Life model which harkens back to the sound of a minstrel banjo.

This banjo is light weight, only 8 lbs, because it has the Grenadillo wood tone ring and no flange nor resonator and so is easy to perform with for hours. The deep 3-ply violin grade maple rim and grenadillo tone ring create a warmth and richness all it's own. It's great for singing and storytelling. It has a beautiful curly maple neck that is elegantly carved with a vine and stained to a rich warm brown. The rim is bound with decorative purfling and ivoroid binding inside and out. The metal parts are plated with durable chrome plating that will have a brand new appearance for years to come. The georgeous Tree of Life inlay is sterling silver with mother of pearl flowers and abalone leaves. The colorful flowers are placed on the fingerboard as fret markers. It is a magnificent banjo that is made to be enjoyed and played and passed on as a cherished heirloom for future generations to carry on the family's music.

Nice scent- not overpowering
Scent: Apple Cider, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
This is a nice scent... not overpowering, but nice... The scent doesn't hang in the air for a long time, but it would be good for people who can't handle heavy scents. This is the one I use the most and I keep getting more. It's a cozy scent, like an autumn candle and enhances the experience of cleaning my counters, floors, etc. It's very sudsy... it takes a few rinses to get the suds out of the sponge and off of the counter, but it it dries quickly and doesn't leave it slippery afterwards. I use it for washing floors as well... I fill the bucket with very hot water and walk around spraying the floor directly, then mopping it up with the hot water- it works well, doesn't leave the floor slippery and smells nice for a number of hours afterwards.

Effective cleaning concentrate!
Scent: Basil, Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I put this product to the test as soon as it was delivered by using it on my bathroom floor ans kitchen floor. We have two boys, ages 2 and 3, and we have a dog and 2 cats. We are in and out of our house constantly and our floors take a beating! This multi surface purpose cleaner concentrate was put to the perfect test! This cleaner worked really well. It cleaned the dirt and filth off my floors and left them feeling and looking clean. The basil smell is very pleasant. It's a light, fresh, clean smell. Not overpowering at all. A little goes a long way! It's still a gentle cleaner that packs big cleaning power! I was very impressed with how well and effortlessly it cleaned and the smell it left afterwards was a plus!

Hmmmm Rose scent is HEAVENLY!
Scent: Rose, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried soaps, air fresheners, cleaners, laundry scents from this brand, and from Fresh cut grass, Honeysuckle, Dandelion, Peony, and Rose scents, the last 3 are the absolute winners!! Rose is the latest one I’ve tried and Im in loooooove!! Makes cleaning actually pleasant! 😂 It’s very much like a Rose essential oil scent you get from Aura Cacia if you ever tried. But basically it’s fantastic, not cheap old rose imitation perfume smell. So soft and heavenly! Not sure about its effectiveness in terms of killing germs, but it leaves no sticky or oily residue. I spray it on countertops, mop the floor with it. One day I was lying on the floor with my legs up and wondering what smelled so wonderful… Then I realized it was the Rose scent from the cleaner. I still use Chlorox products for bathroom sinks, tubs, toilets. But Rose is absolutely delicious! Mr Meyers, please bring Rose and Peony as laundry scent boosters!
