A Great Value For All Skill Levels - The Deering Goodtime Two 5 String W/ Resonator Greg Deering designed the Goodtime banjos because there were no low priced banjos of enough quality for people to actually learn on without difficulty or giving up. He remembers what it was like to want a good banjo and not be able to afford one, so his gift to others is the Goodtime banjo line. Designed for success, the Goodtime banjos are the lowest priced American made banjos. They are so good many professionals have recorded with Goodtime banjos.The Goodtime Two weighs 6 lbs - about the weight of a guitar. The Goodtime Two has a natural blonde maple with a satin finish to protect it. The rich, golden tone and the reverberation off the resonator sound great. You can definitely tell a volume difference between open back and a Goodtime Two. The sound waves aren't getting trapped between you and the banjo, which makes a pretty big difference. If you want a great low priced bluegrass banjo for travel and leisure that plays correctly and is durable, this is the best buy on the market!NECK Blonde Slender Rock Maple Neck 22 Pressed In Nickel Silver Frets Hardwood Bow Tie Inlays Sealed Geared Tuners Geared 5th String Tuner Durable Satin Finish Deering Fiddle Shaped Peghead POT 11" Blonde 3-ply Violin Grade Maple Rim Steel Tension Hoop 11" Frosted Top High Crown Head 5/8" Maple/Ebony Goodtime Bridge 16 Flat Hooks with 9/32" Nuts 16 Bracket Shoes with Screw Attachments Deering Patented Goodtime Tailpiece Steel Coordinator Rod for Adjustments Durable Satin Finish RESONATOR Resonator of Blonde Maple Black Binding Durable Satin Finish TONE Easy to play with clarity of note separation and round full bodied tone.
