  The Long Neck 5-string banjo was made popular in the 1960s by the big daddies of Long Neck banjo playing ...Pete Seeger and Dave Guard (Kingston Trio). Excellent in it's low open tuning for song accompaniment and versatile when a capo is fitted for standard banjo tunings. (you apply a capo to the third fret of this banjo and then play it the same as a standard 'G' banjo)

  The Deering Vega Long Neck banjo has 3 ply maple rim, brass bracket band with nickel plated shoes, traditional Vega neck shape, ebony fingerboard, with mother of pearl traditional inlays.
  
  The Deering Vega Long Neck has a 25 fret fingerboard and is tuned in the open position to E, A, E, G#, B. This is a superb sounding banjo with a deep crisp tone from the Tubaphone tone-ring.

  Please Note: Banjo fingerboard spikes can be fitted as required, either as a custom order or in our Eagle workshops.
