Hey All, Everything I read and all the pictures I look at seem to indicate that the top of the tension hoop when adjusted properly should be above the top of the head and not even with or below it. Is this pretty much correct? I ask because the tension hoop on my banjo is pretty much level with the top of the head. My banjo is a Deering Deluxe which I bought used and has the original Deering head on it. I plan to replace the head in the near future and welcome everyone's thoughts/advice on this matter.
