Deering Goodtime Special 5 String Banjo w/ Resonator

If you're looking for a banjo with good volume and tone, and prefer to keep the cost as low as possible, then this is the banjo for you.The newly Patented Goodtime Special Tone Ring designed by Deering produces a powerfully crisp, bright, sparkling tone, a considerable step up in tone from the original tone ring that was featured on our Goodtime Special banjos. The volume of tone is a wonderful surprise to players.
