Specific Banjos

I own a Deering Banjo, so I am partial to them. All Deering Banjos are made in the USA, in Spring Valley, California which is in San Diego County. I am on page 8 -- 01/07/2010 -- of the thread (it goes for 41 pages).

Who makes good banjos? (2008)

I am partial to Deering and Nechville, both with excellent reputations, and both made in the USA.
