This Deering Boston was built here in California 1995 and it’s in excellent structural and cosmetic condition. The frets only show a bit of wear. The Boston is crafted with a one-piece steel shell functions like a great big tone ring and the resonator projects that tone forward like a speaker. This is a loud banjo with lots of punch and projection. If you wanted the more plunky open-back banjo tone, however, the resonator flange sections could be removed and the resonator left off (this would be reversible and wouldn’t require taking the whole banjo apart, btw). Comes with its original hardshell case.
