The Deering Goodtime Artisan Americana Fretless Banjo features a 12-inch rim, which gives the banjo a stronger bass response and a much warmer tone.
The fullness and warmth of the larger rim is further enhanced by the addition of a 12-inch Renaissance head which beautifully complements the banjo both visually and sonically.
The Artisan version of the Goodtime Americana features a rich brown stain, planetary banjo tuners, and the Midnight Maple fingerboard.
