This is a first for Banjos Studio, a 19-fret tenor banjo with a 21" scale length.  This is the scale length of a 17-fret tenor.  This makes for a super easy playing instruments that have less tension, but also have the frets closer together.  This makes those 3-4 fret chords so much easier to play.  You need to check out this banjo.  We love the Deering Eagle II tenor banjo over here at Banjo Studio. The Deering Twenty Ten tone ring that this banjo is fitted with gives it a fantastic warm and rich tone with plenty of crispness to cut through and not be muddy. This custom version of this banjo is an openback (does not have a resonator back) which reduces the weight and warms it up some more. It also features a powdered coated bronze hardware that you find on the popular Vega Vintage Star.  Lastly, we requested a satin finish for a fast playing neck. 

This banjo would be fantastic for jazz or Irish playing. It is currently set up in standard tenor tuning (CGDA) but can be setup in Irish tuning (GDAE) upon request. 

Comes with a Deering hardshell case that fits and protects this beautiful instrument perfectly.
