Deering Tenbrooks Saratoga Star with Kruger Tone Ring Used (2015)

The Deering Tenbrooks Saratoga, with its Crisp Maple with a full bodied tone, deep bass, and brilliant highs, is one of the most elegantly beautiful modern banjos to enter the  musical arena of classic instruments. Greg Deering personally designed the inlays with an Art Nouveau style in mind. Reminiscent of the Victorian Era, this high grade Maple banjo with a Swiss made Kruger tone ring stands out as a top of the line professional instrument, at home on the concert stages throughout the world. It is played by world renowned banjoists like Bela Fleck, Tony Trischka, Ned Luberecki and more.
