The Super-Tone thumb pick is a significant innovation on ProPik’s long-standing line of thumb picks, and follows months of R&D and customer feedback. Deering approached the Super-Tone thumb pick by giving consideration to two important factors – tone and comfort.
Firstly, the blade of the Super-Tone is made from a high-performance engineering thermoplastic commonly used in aerospace. It is incredibly strong and rigid, especially compared to the Delrin plastic that ProPik has traditionally used. Tonally, this material has certainly turned heads in the banjo-playing fraternity, offering a more focused, melodic tone and superior durability.
This particular plastic is also flame resistant and generates low levels of smoke under fire conditions - perfect for you shredders out there!
Introducing the new Goodtime Deco Series, a stunning tribute to the vibrant American Art Deco design movement of the 1920s when the banjo reigned as America's most beloved instrument.
Learning how to play the banjo is no different. There are different types of banjos and plenty of new terminology for parts of banjos and playing styles. Aspiring players also wonder what makes one banjo better than another.
Watch and listen to Deering artists play our banjos and choose your favorite tone!
All of our banjos are made by passionate banjo craftsmen and women in our Spring Valley, California shop.
Deering Banjo Company was founded by Greg & Janet Deering in 1975 and continues to be family owned & operated. Today Greg & Janet's daughter Jamie Deering is the CEO of Deering Banjos.
Deering makes banjos. We don't make other instruments. We focus on what we do best and do it at the highest level.
