Deering G6S-PZ Goodtime 6 String Banjo W/Piezo Pickup

Transition From Guitar To Banjo Easily - The Deering G6S-PZ Goodtime 6 String Banjo With Piezo PickupThe Goodtime Six was not designed to replace the guitar, but rather complement it. It affords guitarists the chance to play what they already know from a new perspective - with unimaginably creative results.This is a 6 string, steel string banjo that tunes as a guitar, and that's built with a fast, sleek, comfortable guitar-style neck that already feels like an old friend. The Goodtime 6 has an 11 inch 3-ply violin grade maple rim with a frosted top head lending that traditional banjo snap. The addition of a piezo pickup that sits directly under the bridge makes for immediate ease recording and going out onstage. Deering's 41 years of banjo know how now puts a quality American made 6 string banjo within reach of any guitarist that's looking to add an authentic banjo sound to their arsenal without breaking the bank.SPECIFICATIONSNeck Blonde Slender Rock Maple Neck Maple Fingerboard With A 15" Radius 1 11/16th Nut Width Fast, Sleek and Comfortable Neck Profile 22 Pressed In Nickel Silver Frets Classic Block Style Hardwood Inlays 2 Way Adjustable Truss Rod Sealed Geared Tuners Elixir XL Strings (10, 14, 23, 30, 39, 47) Durable Satin Finish 6 Strings Tuned Like A Guitar Pot Blonde 3-Ply Violin Grade Maple Rim Steel Tension Hoop 11" Frosted Top High Crown Head 5/8" Maple/Ebony Goodtime Smile Bridge 16 Flat Hooks with 9/32" Nuts 16 Bracket Shoes with Screw Attachments Goodtime Six Tailpiece Steel Coordinator Rod for Adjustments Durable Satin Finish Goodtime Armrest ToneEasy To Play With Clarity Of Note Separation And Round Full Bodied Tone TuningE,A,D,G,B,E In Standard Guitar Tuning.
