Deering Sierra Maple Openback Banjo

Deering has done it again with this innovative variation on their Sierra Bluegrass, the Deering Sierra Maple Openback  banjo!!

By simply eliminating the heavy flange and resonator the Sierra open-back offers a voice very much in the spirit of the famed Vega #2 Tubaphone at a far lower price.

The Deering Sierra uses the famed ’06 or Aught Six Deering flathead ring – a ring that has roughly the same mass as a Tubaphone which when combined with the maple neck offers the superb tone and sustain one would expect in the Vega #2.

All this in an elegant and very playable, professional grade banjo.

A Deering Vega archtop hardshell case is included.

More From the Builder On The Deering Sierra Maple Open Back Banjo:

“Our most popular and affordable professional grade banjo now available as an openback. Greg Deering knows what it feels like to want a professional banjo and not be able to afford it, so this has become the flagship of our line. “
