Deering

“The familiar rich dark brown stain, planetary tuning pegs and the addition of 5th string spikes at frets 7, 9, 10 for alternate tunings allows this light weight maple banjo to exceed the features customers wanted and needed. The violin-grade maple rim is made of the same wood used on the professional level Deering models and gives the Goodtime banjo a rich, full, round note distinction.

Lightweight enough to travel with, convenient enough to keep by your easy chair at home, the Goodtime Artisan is great for hours of practice with a neck that is both comfortable to play and accurate to fret. This Goodtime banjo is not only beautiful to look at but will bring you hours of musical enjoyment.” – From the Deering Website

The designs and ideas of Deering banjos have afforded us the pleasure of providing customers with great quality banjos for a number of years. They sport a forward and punchy sound accompanied by a manageable weight from the open back. All together, this banjo is a great buy for anyone entering into the world of 5-string banjos!
