Deering Deco Americana 5 String Banjo
SKU:

Manufacturer Part #:
DGAM
In the 10 years since its release, the Americana has cemented itself as a firm favorite for players looking for a warmer, deeper tone, thanks to its wider 12" rim.
Think of the rim as a speaker cone. Bass speakers tend to be wider, for lower frequencies, whereas mid and high-frequency speakers tend to be smaller. The bano head works in a similar way, giving the Americana a stronger bass response and a much fuller and warmer tone.
This is further enhanced by the addition of a 12” renaissance head which beautifully complements the banjo both visually and sonically while offering a warmer tonal color to the more common white frosted top heads.
Made in America and built around the long standing Goodtime Principles, the Americana is a superb option for clawhammer players and beginners alike.
The Goodtime Americana Deco retains the distinctive natural blonde Goodtime aesthetics and features 14:1 guitar style tuners, and a rock maple neck, but now features US Bronze powder finished hardware, and new Art Deco inspired hardwood inlays.
Played with an old time style technique, the Americana is reminiscent of banjos from a period when larger rims were more prevalent which makes the 12” a great setup for playing old time music.
The wonderfully laid back sound of the Americana lends itself perfectly for musicians looking to use the banjo to back up a vocalist or another instrument, instead of playing the lead instrument role.
