Theres a music shop that was closing the store so I was looking around and a banjo cought my eye. It has the the brand ARITA written on it. I looked on google and only hits for Arita was some japanese dude who plays the banjo. ARIA however, returns some hits as a quality manufacturer.

I was wondering if I should return it.

Do you mean Aria? If so, some of their guitars are OK.

the brand label on the head of the banjo says Arita. I appears to have pearl inlays. I'm going to guess that the banjo is of atleast medium quality, because why would someone give a crappy banjo a pearl inlay?
