Deering Banjos - John Hartford Banjo

MPN: John Hartford

This used Deering John Hartford Banjo is a 5-string beauty. Made with a Hartford Grenadillo tone ring, it has a sweet, full-bodied tone you would expect from a wood ring. Surprisingly, its specially tapered resonator makes its volume comparable to a lot of bluegrass banjos with bronze tone rings. It has a Curly Maple neck and resonator, and a 3-ply Maple rim. A one-piece cast Zinc flange, brass-notched tension hoop, and a true tone tailpiece help add a sweet high end to its rich bass response and exceptional resonance.

Not only does this banjo sound wonderful, but it looks great with Gothic Steamboat inlays. This instrument is in Excellent condition, and plays extremely well. It has had a Shubb 5th string capo added, and has some minor nicks on the neck and back (see photos). A great value, this Deering John Hartford Banjo comes with its original hard case. USED
