Quick Overview

The Classic Goodtime 17 Fret Tenor banjo is tuned like an Octave Mandolin G,D,A,E so any mandolin player can easily pick it up and play it. It can also be tuned like a standard Tenor banjo in C,G,D,A. The Classic has a traditional look with the Deering Peghead Shape, a Rich Brown stain, and Planetary Banjo Tuners. It's a good tenor banjo, lighter weight with a clear tone that is warm and resonant. Because this model has a resonator it is louder than the open back model. It has an accurate neck that is as comfortable as can be.

The vintage look and light weight of easy playing banjo will give you years of delight and enjoyment. Weighing in at only 6 pounds, this light weight banjo can go with you easily when you travel.
