SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.

The Deering Maple Blossom 5-String Banjo is a beautifully crafted instrument that delivers bright, articulate tone with excellent projection and clarity. Its curly maple construction provides a crisp, lively response, while the bell bronze tone ring adds depth, power, and a strong, ringing sustain. The ebony fingerboard and slender neck profile create a smooth, comfortable playing experience, making it easy to move across all 22 frets. Elegant details like the mother of pearl floral inlays and gloss finish give it a refined, classic look. Clear, punchy, and highly expressive, this Maple Blossom offers a voice that stands out with confidence in any setting!

Curly maple wood, -06- tone ring, and flower inlays are the other key elements of the Deering Maple Blossom banjo. Maple Blossom is made from eastern violin grade curly maple, stained with a dark walnut stain, and adorned with flower mother of pearl inlays. When this individually selected wood is built into a banjo with the genuine Deering -06-bronze tone ring, 3-ply violin grade maple rim, and one piece zinc flange, the result is a banjo that is so bright, crisp and clear that every note pops out of this banjo with precision and power.

The Deering -06- tone ring produces a beautiful, balanced overtone spectrum. Its weight is ideal for most styles played on the banjo. A softer touch will provide you with as much sustain as you ever want, a sharper attack will produce a distinct pop and accurate note separation. You will notice no dead spots over the entire fingerboard. The beautiful highs and powerful well rounded bass is the result of intense study of alloys and shapes which resulted in the new -06- tone ring you hear in the great tone of the Maple Blossom banjo today.
