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.
Designed for success, the Goodtime banjos are the lowest priced American made banjos. They are so good many professionals have recorded with Goodtime banjos.

The Goodtime Two has a natural blonde maple with a satin finish to protect it. The rich, golden tone and the reverberation off the resonator sound great. You can definitely tell a volume deference between open back and a Goodtime Two.
The sound waves aren't getting trapped between you and the banjo, which makes a pretty big difference. If you want a great low priced bluegrass banjo for travel and leisure that plays correctly and is durable, this is the best buy on the market!

Very Nice!
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulRoss....Thank You
I received my Goodtime Two a few days ago, and am very happy so far. Ross is a wonderful person to work with, and will answer all of your questions. He is very helpful in trying to find the best fit for your needs. Most importantly, he takes excellent care to insure that you are a happy customer!
The customer service that Ross provides is over the top, which isn’t as easy to find these days....so don’t hesitate to give him a call! Should I see an upgrade in the future, I’ll be giving Ross a call.
Thank you for all of your help Ross!

It sounds great and is well built.
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful Good afternoon. I wanted to let you know that I really like the Deering Good Time 2 that I received. In fact, it is actually quite a bit better than I expected a basic-intermediate grade banjo to be. It sounds great and is well built. Now if I can just learn to do it justice in playing! This is my second purchase from you (having purchased a Recording King Dirty 30s Open Back 5 String Banjo from you earlier). Both purchases were great from start to finish, and I really appreciate the time Ross took to answer my questions. I will recommend BanjoTeacher.com for anyone in the market for a banjo or instruction. And when it's time for me to upgrade...I'll be back!
Blessings, Mike Jenkins
Banjo arrived in Moscow
0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulHi Ross,
I just wanted to let you know that my banjo (Deering Goodtime 2) arrived in Moscow in one, beautiful piece. The online lessons and the Fundamentals book are a great supplement to my in-person lessons with a local teacher. Thank you for providing me with my first banjo (and the beginners' party favors)! I will put it to good use.
Yours,
Adrien

0 of 0 people found the following review helpfulGetting ready to begin my second year with this banjo- my first, so had nothing to compare. Went to a music store and played around with an import last week. I was happy with this purchase and happy I chose to buy through Banjoteacher. I was even happier after the music store visit! Personally, there is something about owning a uniquely American instrument that was also manufactured here. I have a long way to go before my playing will justify a new banjo, but when the time comes, I will most likely stick with Deering and Banjoteacher. Little things mean a lot. When my tuner lost its juice and I would have had to go to the store, I double checked my goodie bag- and there was an extra set of batteries! Just a nice touch of class! Thank You!
