THIS AUCTION HAS BEEN COMPLETED.

Winning Bid: $3,000

The Scotland Charity Banjo is entirely one-of-a-kind made with a deep black neck bearing Scotland’s name and shape proudly on the peghead. With pearloid inlays of light blue set into the Midnight Maple fingerboard in a perfect contrast to the deep blue stained resonator, this banjo pays respect to the loch’s that are the sparkling jewels of Scotland

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 Kindred Scotland.  Kindred provides practical information, advocacy, emotional support and guidance to parents whose children have serious, complex or terminal conditions. In the last year, they have done this for over 880 families across Scotland. They support families to:

  • come to terms with their child’s diagnosis and the implications for the future
  • understand their child’s limitations, the pain they experience and their challenging behaviour
  • learn new skills to support a disabled child at home
  • apply for disability benefits, equipment or home adaptation which will ease the situation for both parents and children
  • find the right school and learning support
  • cope with bereavement

They do all this from a place of personal knowledge and experience, with 50% of their Board and over 80% of their staff team made up of parents of children with disabilities.
