| Finally, an all American Bluegrass maple-wood banjo at under $2000
!
Deering Banjos are now offering their most popular Sierra model banjo
in maple !
Over the past year I have often asked Barry Hunn at Deering for a
lower priced Maple banjo along the lines of the mahogany neck and resonator
Sierra model. Though I dearly love the look and feel of the Deering
Maple Blossom, it is beyond the budget of some of my customers who MUST
own a Deering but prefer maple over mahogany.
Barry informed me in December that the shop is now jigged up to do
Sierra model maple necks and resonators for a small up-charge.
We get the same awesome ’06 Deering Silicone Bronze sand-cast
tone ring as used on the mahogany Sierra. Plus the maple resonator, unique
Deering flange and rim that one finds on the Deering Maple Blossom.
We have the simple yet elegant look of the satin finish classic Sierra
Banjo that we all love ….with exactly the same tone, hardware, and wood
species found on the higher priced Deering Maple Blossom.
Plus this model features a delightful new inlay pattern on the fretboard.
A lovely extra touch that really adds to the banjo.
We received two new maple Sierra banjos this week. |
