(other than their budget entry level stuff). Morgans are great looking, and once set up proper, great sounding and playing instruments. Oh yeah the neck may need a truss rod adjustment as well. Some tailpieces are lighter than others, so if the Morgan you want does not have a decent cast tail piece change it over. Make sure the bridge is where it needs to be for proper intonation and fit it to the instrument (using sand paper of course). Put decent strings on the instrument-the factory ones are #. Chances are the nut will be plastic-replace it with a bone one and you are pretty much set for life. I usually set my own instruments up so it is not a big deal to me. I do not know if it is because the dealers they have don't know how to do various set ups or not. Any Morgan Monore instrument I have EVER played needed a set up. Morgans tend to get slammed by "instrument snobs" who unless the instrument has a major name attached to the peghead or a custom builder's they put it down. I am a banjo player first and foremost and my main banjo is a Morgan Monroe.
