Description

For years players have been asking for a lighter weight banjo with a full rich tone at an affordable price point. This desire has now become reality in the new White Lotus 5-string resonator banjo. Weighing in at only 8 pounds and featuring the newly patented Deering white oak rim design, this American white oak banjo has the bright tone, crisp and clear note distinction, power, and sustain formerly only seen in banjos with metallic tone rings.

Having heard a vintage guitar of white oak years ago, Greg Deering decided to experiment with a white oak rim and neck for a banjo to see how the tone of this unique tone wood translated to a banjo.

Surprisingly the result is a banjo with an almost metallic resonance without a tone ring. Why? American white oak is noted for a heavy, straight-grained texture; hard, tough, very stiff and strong. It is these key qualities of white oak wood that imbue this banjo with strong fundamental notes and a series of overtones that imitate a bell metal tone ring without the additional weight characteristic of this classic banjo component. Now the banjo player can have the much desired lighter weight banjo with “tone ring” power.

Alongside the patented white oak rim, other features include a white oak neck and resonator accented with white binding, an ebony fingerboard and peghead overlay, new lotus flower inspired inlays, the Eagle Series style flange, Deering’s comfortable neck shape with the easily recognizable peghead profile and and a sparkling glossy finish.

Condition

This Banjo is in Mint Condition.  It appears untouched and is identical to a new model.

The finish on the neck and resonator is super clean and has a nice shine.  The hardware also is glowing all the way around.  This banjo is stunning.

The fretboard is super clean and the frets are  perfect.  This has spikes at frets 7and 9.  The case is also super clean, near mint, inside and out.

Set Up

This is set up with a new Remo frosted head set to 90.  The bridge is a Deering and this has new Huber strings.  The banjo is a stellar player and is set up for easy playing and strong volume and tone production.

This is basically the perfect Light Weight Banjo and these do not come up for sale used often.  Buy it now!!!
