About the rig:
The Classic Goodtime Special is an achievement not only in making a quality banjo but in keeping the cost down and providing an instrument that will stay in tune and perform reliably because it is made out of stable woods by skilled people who know how to make banjos that play right. Made with the best economy at the Deering Banjo factory in San Diego, California, this is a comfortably playable banjo with a wonderfully clear and rich tone.
