Description
 
At last! An affordable American-made tenor banjo! Made in California by our friends at Deering. Now redesigned with a fiddle-shapped peghead, a 3-ply maple rim and bow-tie inlay pattern.

The Goodtime banjo has a slender low profile neck that is easy to finger and comfortable for large and small hands. The high quality rock maple wood contributes to the bright sparkling sound of the Goodtime banjo. This hard, dense wood is also very strong and stable.

The fret work is accurate and precise to ensure accurate intonation over the entire fingerboard.

The single coordinator rod in the pot easily and effectively adjusts the playability so that the strings are close to the fingerboard and are easy to press down. This allows the beginner and the professional to adjust the action (height of the strings) to their own particular style.

All five tuners are geared and easy to tune.

The tailpiece is extremely strong and easily adjustable to maximize tone by raising or lowering it.

The multi-ply pot is made of birch and maple. Both woods are hard and dense and contribute to the bright crisp sound of the Goodtime banjo.

Professional musicians have told us that the Goodtime banjo has such clear and accurate intonation and the tone is so full, bright and clear, that they would not hesitate to perform with it on stage. Though it is a low priced banjo, the use of professional grade woods and the careful fitting and design of the parts give the Goodtime banjo a musical tone that has many of the qualities demanded by professional banjoists and entertainers. With its sparkling and sweet sound it is fun to learn and play and enjoyable for family members to listen to while the student is learning.

Note: Our banjos are individually inspected, set up and tuned by the banjo.com staff in Georgia. We are banjo players, so we set them up the way we want to play them! Each banjo is in tune when we carefully pack it for shipment. Climate conditions and travel will affect the tuning, so it may need to be fine-tuned before playing.
