Brand new model from Deering! In a nod to the rising popularity of old-timey music heard in movies like O Brother, Where art Thou?, Deering has introduced the Vega Olde Tyme Wonder. This is an exciting banjo for all frailing and clawhammer players. It starts with a Vega Little Wonder 3-ply maple rim and rock maple neck, both stained a gorgeous dark brown. Add to that a scooped fingerboard, planetary pegs, fiberskyn head, No-Knot tailpiece and Vega-style armrest, and you've got yourself a great old-time banjo. This one has a darker, plunkier sound than the standard Vega Little Wonder. s/n: 0940703D000
