The crisp, bright tones and delicate beauty of the Calico bring out the real fun of playing a banjo. It has a beautiful Honey stained curly maple neck and resonator with purfling and ivoroid binding. Mother- of-pearl scroll inlays adorn the ebony fingerboard. The neck has a two-way adjustable truss-rod, as do all Deering banjos. Bound in white, the peghead has an elegantly finished look. the slender neck shape is fast and easy to play.
