Proudly manufactured in the USA, the Deering Goodtime is the obvious choice for a beginner looking for a substantial instrument. Seasoned banjo players will appreciate its lightweight openback design and rich tone. The Goodtime Limited Edition Cherry Banjo is a limited release of the best-selling Goodtime model. The Limited Edition Goodtime Cherry is limited to 100 banjos and also features a nickel-plated Goodtime banjo armrest.
On the Limited Edition Cherry, the rim is a 3-ply Cherry/Maple/Cherry construction that projects crisp and clear tone. When paired with the Remo Skyntone head, this banjo delivers a beautiful balance of warmth and clarity. Across the board, it has more nuance and subtlety than the standard Goodtime model, especially for old-time and traditional playing styles. The blonde maple fingerboard features classic hardwood Artisan-style inlays, and the peghead features a beautiful Cherry veneer and a "Goodtime LTD" banner logo.
