Overview
6-string banjo with passive Kavanjo pickup, Pau Ferro fingerboard and 11" 3-ply violin grade maple rim.
Ready to plug in with the help of fully passive Kavanjo banjo pickup, the Deering Goodtime 6-string acoustic-electric banjo is ready to be run through your favorite pedals, amp or PA in seconds, using your same standard 1/4" guitar cable.
The Goodtime 6-string banjo comes hot on the heels of the very popular Goodtime Six openback banjo, but features a resonator making the Goodtime Six-R ready for the big stage.
Tonally, the Goodtime Six-R is elevated by the addition of a maple resonator behind it's 11" 3-ply violin grade maple rim. Like any banjo, the addition of a resonator not only creates a hollow sound chamber, but also provides a flat surface for the sound to bounce off and project forward towards the player’s audience, instead of being absorbed by their body. The result is a significantly fuller, clearer, and more vibrant tone.
The Goodtime Six banjos were not designed to replace the guitar, but rather complement it. It affords guitarists the chance to play what they already know with unimaginably creative results.
