Additional Information

Model	Deluxe 17 Fret Tenor
In Depth	Mahogany with our -06 bronze tone ring, the bright and snappy Irish Tenor 17-fret Deluxe is one of the best banjo values available anywhere. Built with Deering’s genuine bell bronze tone ring, three ply rock maple rim and one piece, cast, zinc resonator flange, this Deluxe is as easy to play as it is beautiful. The mother of pearl inlay in the ebony peghead overlay, is the very first Deering logo and was designed by Greg Deering for his very first banjo in 1969. The multicolor binding and high gloss finish enhance the slotted diamond inlays on the exotic, natural ebony fingerboard. One of Deering’s oldest and most popular models, this banjo brings the power, easy playability and maintenance together in a beautiful, historically important banjo that is just as much at home on the front porch as it is on the road. It truly is a Deluxe banjo.
