DEERING BANJOS

The Tenbrooks Saratoga Star Are you looking for the finest banjo on Planet Earth? There is no question about which banjo you should get! Greg Deering's "Tenbrooks" series, the "Saratoga Star" features a gorgeous curly Maple neck and Resonator, and the world-renowned Jens Kruger tone-ring.(You may know that a famous thoroughbred, "Tenbrooks", won by an overwhelming margin, in one of the most memorable horse races ever to take place at the Kentucky Derby, in 1878! This banjo is just like its namesake, who outdistanced all rivals!) The tone-ring is hand-cast at the Swiss Ruetschi Bell Foundry, which has over 600 years experience in bell-casting! The evenly-crystallized molecules create the very exceptional sound this ring produces. This banjo has a lively voice, with great sustain and even tonality from string to string, and all the way up the neck.



The Custom Greg Deering Limited We had this amazing banjo further customized when we had Greg choose the very finest figured Maple for the resonator and neck. This makes for a much more traditional Bluegrass sound from this extraordinary banjo! This banjo features multi-colored Abalone pearl, which is inlaid alongside the Ivoroid binding. Intricate Abalone and Mother-of-pearl inlays adorn the genuine Ebony fingerboard and peghead. This banjo features the famous Deering, hand-cast, bell-bronze tone ring, along with Zinc flange construction.This instrument can be heard over all the other banjos at a jam,and on stage it will really make heads turn!!


The Golden Era This banjo is designed to reproduce the most sought-after 5-string banjos of the pre-war era. The beautiful curly Maple is finished with a vintage sunburst color. The Golden Era Pearl fingerboard inlays are stunning. This handsome, and traditional banjo has the genuine Deering 20-hole tone ring, for a crisp, loud Bluegrass tone!


The Maple Blossom This is an excellent banjo, with a crisp, clear tone. The hard, rock Maple neck, and resonator are stained a Walnut color! This banjo possesses the bell-bronze tone ring, as well as zinc flanges. The feel of the binding against the slender neck shape make for very comfortable playing.


The B-6, 6-String Banjo-Guitar This instrument lets any guitar player sound like a banjo player! The resonator is made from tropical American Mahogany. The fingerboard is arched, for ease of playing. The pot utilizes a steel rim construction. This 6-string banjo creates excellent note distinction and sparkling clarity, which makes for an ideal recording and performing instrument! (Also, it's LOTS of fun!!)


The Goodtime 2 Banjo What a wonderful beginner instrument this is! Blugrass bands who have visited Wildwood are quite taken and enthusiastic about this handmade American instrument. At an affordable price, beginner or veteran looking for a great-sounding, yet inexpensive banjo will find this beautifully fills the bill!!


The Goodtime, Open-Back Banjo Here's an ideal banjo for travel, at an unbelievable price! Versatile and good-sounding, this lightweight instrument will afford you many hours of happy music.


The Goodtime Tenor, 17-fret Whether you play guitar, mandolin, or banjo, the Goodtime Tenor banjo is for you! This banjo can be tuned either with a guitar tuning(D,G,B,E), or with a mandola tuning(C,G,D,A). Flatpicking a banjo never was easier, or more fun! You'll want to give this a strum on your next visit!

STELLING BANJOS

The Red Fox Deluxe This astounding banjo features beautifully engraved, genuine Gold, matte finish on all the hardware! The tailpiece is tastefully engraved with the now-famous Fox head, and the armrest sports engraved leaves. The finest fancy curly Maple graces this instrument in a Vintage Shaded Sunburst finish. Inside the resonator is the Lost Timbre Block Wood banjo rim, specially commissioned by Goeff Stelling and installed on all his banjos! On the back of the resonator is an attractive ring of hand-inlaid wood marquetry! The Red Fox in the peghead and the gorgeous abalone pearl, fingerboard leaf inlays make this a very striking model, both in sound and appearance.!


The Red Fox Here is the same marvelous banjo, only with nickel plated hardware, but no engraving, and a handsome, warm, reddish-brown stain on the neck and resonator. Again, that wily Fox makes another appearance, inlaid with the same beautiful pearl, in the headstock. The Block Wood tone rim is not for the timid banjo player--you WILL stand out!! There is no Bluegrass banjo player alive who would not be proud to own this instrument!



The Virginian Goeff and Sherry Stelling live in the in the majestic Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia; it's only natural that they would create an exquisite banjo to honor the region, as well as all the noteable banjo players who claim Virginia as their home! This model features the Cardinal (Virginia's state bird), inlaid on the headstock. The state flower, the Dogwood blossom, accents the fingerboard. Finally, there is striking abalone trim on the neck and resonator, which are made with fancy curly Maple! The Old Wood Tone Rim gives this banjo dramatic volume, full tone, and great clarity!


The Swallowtail Goeff created this model to capture the beauty of nature, inlaying the swallow, oak leaf, acorn, and closed knot in the fingerboard. The Swallow itself is inlaid in Abalone and Mother-of-Pearl both in the headstock, and on the back of the resonator. Neck and resonator feature curly Maple that is stained with a sunburst Cremona-style finish similar to the Virginian! Bluegrass tradition really shines on this banjo!


The Golden Cross The late, great Don Reno played this model during the last 10 years of his life. The cross inlaid in the headstock matches the golden sunburst used to stain the fancy curly Maple on the neck and resonator. In addition, purfling is inlaid along the neck and resonator binding! The Maple Block Wood rim is virtually gluelessWhat a blessing this banjo could give your life!!


The Sunflower Here is an outstanding example of understated elegance in a banjo. Then, add the fabulous Tony Pass tone rim, and luscious curly Maple to the neck and resonator, and finish it with the shaded, Cremona-styled sunburst stain.
