Deering’s new patent-pending Smile™ Banjo Bridge is created to fit into the natural curve created on a banjo head when under string tension. This relieves the stress found in a traditional bridge allowing the Smile™ Bridge to vibrate without constriction. The result is an instantly fuller and more expressive mid-range, less constricted low-end frequencies, and a wonderful balance across all strings.

This new and innovative GRIP banjo peg winder by Music Nomad illustrates the high quality, versatility, and ease. It features:

• Rubber Lined, Dual Bearing Peg Winder
• Innovative Dual Bearing Construction for Effortless, Silent & Super Fast Winding
• Safe Scratch-Free & Clank Free Rubber Lined Design
• Fits & Grips Virtually all Tuning Pegs
• Ergonomic, Non-slip Comfort Grip
• Narrow Profile Winder Design Keeps you From Hitting other Pegs on Tight fit Banjos

HERE ARE THE WIDE SELECTION OF BANJO HEADS TO CHOOSE FROM:

Top Frosted- The most popular head made for a 5-string banjo. Crisp bright with a good snap, not too much sustain, good clarity and note distinction.

Black-Mellow in tone with long sustain, lots of low frequency response and not a crisp as a clear or bottom frosted head. More sustain that the fiberskyn.

Renaissance-Smooth top & opaque honey color. Tone is a brighter than found in the fiberskyn head. Another favorite of old time clawhammer players.

Fiberskyn-Warm, round character. A favorite with old time clawhammer players.

Matte Black-This is new head will provide a mellow banjo tone, not too much sustain, good clarity and note distinction. Has a matte finish. 

Bottom Frosted-Popular with tenor and plectrum banjoists because the smooth outer surface is quieter when strumming. The head has good bass response.
