Deering beginner banjos with closed back wood resonator for playing and learning bluegrass banjo 5-string 3 finger Scruggs style. Deering banjos are American Made in California and have come up with a great Deering banjo to learn on that newbie beginning banjo students can start on without investing right away in a more expensive professional bluegrass banjo.
On this model the closed back wood resonator back provides more projection of sound than the Goodtime 1 and is more suitable for playing bluegrass music. These banjos are still light though and easy to learn on with plenty of volume and a clear bright tone.
Greg Deering designed the Goodtime banjos because there were no low priced banjos of enough quality for people to actually learn on without difficulty or giving up. He remembers what it was like to want a good banjo and not be able to afford one, so his gift to others is the Goodtime banjo line.

this MUST be your banjo weapon of choice
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful
Quality:
Trust me folks, if you are a beginner through full-on intermediate player, this MUST be your banjo weapon of choice. Nothing even comes close at this price point by ANY other manufacturer...believe me, I've played them all! Sure, you can find a slightly "cheaper" banjo, but the couple bucks you save will NOT be worth what you will sacrifice in fit, finish, quality, playability, durability, and above all TONE! The GoodTime 2 even plays/sounds better than a VAST majority of other manufacturer's models costing hundreds (or even thousands) more! The GoodTime 2 is just one more reason that Deering has been played all over the world for decades. It's a hand's down winner!

Great First Banjo for the Novice
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulI received my Deering Goodtime 2 yesterday from BanjoTeacher.com and couldn’t be more pleased. It’s a very playable and user friendly instrument (if that makes sense). What I wasn’t prepared for was just how beautiful an instrument it is with its blonde maple shade of coloring. I was playing it late last night and resumed playing as soon as I woke up this morning so that I could get in some additional practice time before going to work.
Customer service was first rate from start to finish. Ross phoned me twice to provide me details regarding my order. You simply don’t get that kind of customer attention anywhere else in this modern world of online shopping, very refreshing. BanjoTeacher is now my shopping site of choice for all my banjo needs.
I’m especially grateful for your very personalized service
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulHi Ross
My banjo arrived today and it looks and sounds great. I’m especially grateful for your very personalized service. I thought it was a lost art but you made me feel I was your only customer and not just a number. Looking forward to utilizing your gold member service
Thanks again

Best banjo yet owned
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulI have to concur with the other reviewer as "weapon of choice." The fit, the neck, the setup, and finish came out of the box was perfect. Wasn't too overly impressed with the tone at first since they all come with light strings. Changed them out to Martin Vega medium strings, and the thing came alive. I love the light weight and warmer tone than the model with the tone ring ( Goodtime 2 Special). Incredible difference! Deering should ship them with those strings. Check out Mean Mary on YouTube. She plays nothing but. I have owned many different banjos costing much more. I'll keep this one.
