Deering Golden Wreath 5 String Banjo with Case

A callback to the golden age of banjos in this great American made heirloom quality piece!   Patterned after the early Gibson Mastertone style 3 wreath models, this recreation from Deering checks all the same boxes for quality and tone.   The Golden Wreath is a traditional design of the classic Gibson banjos made in the 1930’s. A prewar style bluegrass banjo with that J.D. Crowe “mahogany” tone, this series is made of higher quality materials and workmanship than Deerings Sierra line.
