Deering BOSTON 6-string Acoustic-Electric banjo

Deering BOSTON 6-string Acoustic-Electric banjo

The Deering Boston 6-string banjo is tuned like a guitar, guitar players can get up and go on stage immediately. This one is an acoustic-electric model. The sound of this banjo is much preferred in country recording studios and in non-traditional bands. Taylor Swift uses this banjo on her Grammy award winning song "Mean". The instrument has big resonant basses, you can’t hear on a 5-string banjo, and also crispy highs for that beautiful banjo tone. Just plug it in and it's amplified with a great acoustic tone of the Kavanjo banjo pickup. Deering deluxe hard case included. RESERVED
