  • Pre owned high quality open back banjo in near mint condition
  • Versatile instrument - suitable for most styles of banjo playing, from Old Time to Bluegrass
  • Includes deluxe hard shell case

This Deering Vega Senator 5-string banjo is in near mint condition as is the deluxe hard shell case included. A very versatile instrument, this banjo is ideal for Old Time styles but will also handle bluegrass licks very nicely too. 

A spun brass tone ring, ideal for Old Time, Classical, Folk, Civil War music, over 100 years of Vega tradition and Deering's innovative approach to banjo crafting went into the creation of the Vega Senator model. The spun brass tone ring gives it a bright yet warm tone. The Senator has the time honored vintage Vega peghead profile, and a rich warm brown stained maple neck with adjustable truss rod and a 3-ply rim with dual coordinator rods. The hard, dense, naturally beautiful ebony fingerboard is inlaid with pearl dots, and a Vega star at the fifth fret. This open back Vega Senator has the ease of playability that all Deering banjos are noted for, and the light weight desired by many banjo players without sacrificing sound quality and sustain.
