Deering Flagship Series
The Flagship Series banjos are the essence of the original banjos that Greg and Janet Deering started making around the time of the company’s inception. Players can expect an inspiring collection of professional-grade banjos which, when played, will leave them longing to play more.
Built in the Deering California facility by the same team who make the Goodtime Series and the Private Collection models, these high-quality American made instruments are built to be played and will stand up to any live or studio performance. Flagship Series models come packed with original Deering features including beautiful intricate inlay work, more choices of wood, ebony fingerboard, gloss finish on select models, a hardshell case, and a lifetime warranty. All you have to do is try one. You won’t need anything else.
