Goodtime Americana Deco 5-String Banjo
Our 12” rimmed Goodtime Americana banjo has a new variation that is inspired by the American Art Deco design movement of the 1920s through its distinct new hardwood inlay design and peghead engraving. The hardware is finished in a beautiful and durable US Bronze powder finish, which is not only hypoallergenic, it won’t tarnish! It also now features a comfortable armrest and as always is made in the U.S.A. With its 12” rim and renaissance head, this banjo is warmer and produces more bass response that is perfect for old time banjo playing or backing up a singer’s voice.
