Banjo Armrests
A brand new armrest design for Deering Goodtime banjos that is flat and rides lower to the head, thus being very comfortable to the player. This armrest is very easy to install and comes with two specially made j-hooks in order to attach it to the pot. Will also work on other similar banjos.
These arm rests from Beansprouts are reproductions of vintage ones, suitable for most open back banjos. They are made to match an 11" rim, but can be carefully bent to fit other sizes (including banjo ukuleles). Made in the USA. Currently available in raw brass only. Please see the video below for installation instructions. Can also be fitted in our workshop.

Two cut out notches on the armrest span two of the hooks on your banjo, all our armrests are supplied with fixing bolts and flat bars. The armrest will give you comfort and stability when playing.
