Today we are featuring the new Deering Dropkick Murphys Boston Model Tenor banjo. This tenor banjo was originally custom built for the Dropkick Murphys band and is based on a John Hartford banjo template which features highly figured maple neck and resonator with a Grenadillo wood tone ring fitted to a red maple rim with a standard Deering flange. This banjo is loud, warm and full sounding and at 6.85 pounds it is roughly half of the weight of a normal Tenor banjo due to the weight savings of the wood tone ring. This is without a question the lightest weight professional Tenor banjo we have seen!

MORE →This really is the most versatile guitar in the extensive Bourgeois line. In Dana’s words; “JOM stands for JUMBO OM. The JOMC is an original body style developed in the late 80’s, in response to players’ requests for a mid-sized guitar having the balance and clarity of an OM–but with a bigger presence. The idea was simple: Start with the OM outline, enlarge it a bit, play around with the curves, deepen the sides, then add the Bourgeois trademark cutaway. The result is our most versatile guitar; larger than an OM, smaller than a Dreadnought, capable of handling almost any playing style you can imagine, and equally capable of operating in solo or ensemble situations.”
