  Deering Boston

Ultimate Package Price $946

Playing is always more fun when you enjoy the sound of your banjo. You'll progress much faster and enjoy playing more with a Boston compared to a lower priced import that's hard to play. The Boston banjo makes playing easier because the banjo works with you, not against you. The Boston has the same adjustable mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard and mother-of-pearl dot inlays, and satin finish as the Sierra. The primary difference is in the drum assembly which is a 3/16" thick steel rim but rings like a tone-ring. The 24-piece flange and steel rim give you a very enjoyable tone. Deering uses high quality sealed guitar-style tuners because they provide a 6:1 gear ratio for accuracy in tuning. The 24-piece flange design allows you to convert this banjo to open-back by removing the flange pieces and resonator.

 

Deering calls this first model of their line the Boston banjo to acknowledge the people of Boston who produced many fine banjos in the earlier part of this century. The Boston rings out loud and clear. The thick steel rim which is unique to the Deering line produces a sound similar to a bronze tone-ring and enables you to get a much more affordable banjo. One way to experience the excellent quality of the Boston banjo is to close your eyes and compare the sound to other banjos in the same price range. The Boston provides exceptional tone which is far superior to the tone of the die-cast brass tone-rings or aluminum rims of the imports.
