THIS AUCTION HAS BEEN COMPLETED.

Winning Bid: $5,510

The England Charity Banjo is entirely one-of-a-kind, made with a deep black neck bearing the shape of England proudly on the peghead. With pearloid inlays of red set into the Midnight Maple fingerboard, and striking blue resonator this banjo bears the long time colors of England.

The drum head of the banjo is personally signed by Mumford & Sons with a personal message from the band. 

Based on the Deering Artisan Goodtime Two this banjo has a resonator back for projection, and a violin grade maple rim that gives it a bright and clear tone. Designed and built by Deering Banjos at their factory in Spring Valley, California specifically for this auction. 

The stunning Artisan Goodtime banjos embody Greg Deering’s lifelong vision for the Deering Banjo Company – to make the best sounding, playing, looking, and best value U.S.A. made banjo that he possibly could. It is a never-ending quest that Deering pursues every single day.

The Charity this auction will benefit is Sands who is the stillbirth and neonatal death charity that operates throughout the UK, supporting anyone affected by the death of a baby, working to improve the care bereaved parents receive, and promoting research to reduce the loss of babies’ lives.

*shipping charges will be added to the final auction selling price. Custom and duty fees paid by recipient.
