Left-Handed Deering Goodtime Blackgrass 5-String Banjo, Made in USA

The left-handed Deering Goodtime Blackgrass is a 5-string resonator banjo with a black stained neck and resonator, a black head and a Midnight Maple fingerboard, handcrafted in Spring Valley, California. Same banjo as the right-handed Goodtime Blackgrass, built mirror image for left-handed players, at about 6 lbs. Brand new, in stock at our shop in Yellow Springs, Ohio. We are an authorized Deering dealer.

A note on the photographs: the images shown are of the right-handed Goodtime Blackgrass. Deering photographs the line in right-handed form. The instrument you receive is built left-handed.

Every Deering we sell receives a professional setup by our banjo tech Tara before shipping, so it arrives ready to play. Free shipping in the US.
