Deering Sierra Tenor Banjo

Here we have a beautifully cared-for 19 fret Deering Sierra tenor banjo purchased less than 5 years ago and hardly played. Great chance to own a high end tenor banjo at a fraction of the new price. See below for Deering specifications from their website…

This must be the finest and most affordable professional tenor banjo on the market. An excellent banjo for tune playing with a fast action Deering neck and awesome power of the Deering -06- 20 hole bell bronze tone ring. The Sierra is the most popular Deering professional model, it is very affordable and you get all the important features that effect tone and playability.
