2016 Deering Sierra 5-String Resonator Banjo – Maple (with Hard Case)
Made in the USA

The Deering Sierra has been America's best-selling professional-grade banjo for nearly 30 years — and for good reason. Conceived by Deering co-founder Greg Deering to deliver flagship tone at an accessible price, the Sierra punches well above its class. This 2016 Maple edition offers a brighter, crisper voice with exceptional note separation compared to the standard mahogany model.
