Deering Sierra Maple 5-String Banjo

Deering's most popular professional grade banjo for almost 30 years. They are proud to manufacture the Sierra as affordably as possible and still retain all of the high end features that affect the tone and playability.

When Greg Deering first introduced the Sierra, he kept the cost down by keeping the cosmetics simple. The money was put into the pot assembly. He wanted to build a top professional banjo at a price that he could have afforded when he was a kid. With the maple resonator, the Sierra has a bright and focused tone quality with a little bit more sustain than the standard mahogany Sierra.

With the implementation of new technology Deering has been able to make the Sierra exquisitely beautiful without raising the price. Inspired by the art work of the old masters of the Boston banjo era from the turn of the last century, the Sierra is also a visually appealing instrument.
