Over 100 years of Vega tradition and Deering’s innovative approach to banjo crafting went into the creation of this Vega Senator model. This Senator is fashioned as an open back banjo with spun brass hoop and rod tone-ring which brightens the tone and creates the brilliance often desired in stage performance. The Senator has the time-honored Vega peghead profile, and a rich warm brown stained rock maple neck with adjustable truss rod and a multi-ply rim with dual coordinator rods. The hard, dense, colorful, exotic and naturally beautiful ebony fingerboard is inlaid with mother-of-pearl dots, and a Vega star at the fifth fret. The Renaissance head and no-knot tailpiece enhance the sound of this banjo, characterized as a full woody tone with beautiful sparkle of clarity and note definition as desired by both the clawhammer / old-timey banjo player and bluegrass player.

This open back Vega Senator has the ease of playability that all Deering banjos are noted for, and the light weight sought after by many banjo players without sacrificing sound quality and sustain.
