   Example of comments I receive from my customers often.
  

  ....."The Banjo just arrived and everything seems to be just as good as you described. So far I am very happy with it. I can already tell the difference from my other banjo. It is even more fun to play. Thanks for your help and patience thru the process. I appreciate your communication. I will let you know how it goes from here. Bert"
  
  ....."When I opened the case, the banjo was perfectly in tune and had a straight neck. It sounds great and I'm very pleased with the product. I am even more pleased with your communication with regard to my purchase. P.S. Thanks for the book too."

  Bluegrass Banjos - All

  5-string Bluegrass Banjos with Resonator at Banjo Teacher

  Gold Tone, Deering, Recording King, Nechville, Gold Star and more!

  At BanjoTeacher.com we hand pick our 5-string bluegrass banjos, choosing banjo brands and models that we know will give you the best chance of success.
  
  We have a great selection of bluegrass banjos from the best beginner banjo for students just starting out to the "next step" and even more professional banjo models that you can continue to grow with.

  Not only do we have low competitive prices that are as good as any out there, but we offer much more than our competitors with our playing expertise, pro banjo set-ups and the professional banjo instruction that is included FREE with the purchase of any bluegrass banjo. Below is a more specific definition of bluegrass banjos and the 5-string banjo styles played with them.

  ".....Ross, Just a quick note to say thanks for the outstanding, superlative service you provided. I called six days ago about a beginner banjo package…you answered all of my questions in terms I, as a beginner, could understand. When I told you I needed the banjo soonest, you called the factory direct and made sure not only that I got it by the date I needed it (I got it today, five days early!), but you got an upgrade for me at the same price! This kind of service is extraordinary, and extraordinarily rare. I’m just starting out, but you can count on me coming back to banjoteacher.com"
  
  "Bluegrass Banjo" style better defined
  Bluegrass Banjo is played with three fingers, your thumb, index and middle fingers and is most often called Earl Scruggs Style or three finger bluegrass style. If it's the sound of Earl Scruggs playing Foggy Mountain Breakdown from the movie Bonnie and Clyde or Duelin' Banjos from the movie Deliverance, then the bluegrass banjos category at BanjoTeacher.com is the right place.
  
  If it's clawhammer, folk, frailing, old time styles you are after then check out selection of Open-Back Banjos. Our 4-string banjos are NORMALLY for Dixieland, Jazz or Old Time Swing or the 4-string Irish Tenor for Irish Celtic Music. We carry six-string banjos too for a variety of musical styles.
  
  "...Ross, Thanks for your advice in helping me to pick out the best banjo to suit my needs as a new banjo enthusiast. Your advice helped me focus in on the style I prefer and the differences I should look for in the banjos. Dave Brueggeman"

  Deering Goodtime

  Best Deering Beginner Banjo - Deering Good Time Banjos

  The Deering Goodtime 1 and Deering Goodtime 2, Goodtime Parlor  Goodtime Special and Goodtime Artisan Banjos
  
  

  Check our complete selection of Deering Goodtime Banjos and Deering Goodtime Banjo Ukes. Goodtime Banjos are great for for learning Bluegrass, Clawhammer, Folk, 4-string banjo styles and other banjo styles. Choose from Goodtimes with resonator, lightweight open back, Goodtime Special with flathead tonering or the Goodtime Artisan with all the features!
  
  The "Deering Goodtime 1" open back or "Deering Goodtime 2" with resonator Beginner Banjo's are really an easy banjo to play which makes it an even easier banjo to learn on. The price is right too and with our superior beginner package you can get started playing and practicing right away.
  
  We also cary the Deering Goodtime Banjo Ukes which is the best banjo uke I've seen, the Goodtime Irish Tenor with 17 frets, the Goodtime Parlor, a 5-string 19 fret travel banjo or the best banjo for kids, the Goodtime artisan parlor banjo,  the 4-string Goodtime tenor or Deering lectrum Goodtime and the Goodtime Drop Kick Murphy, a 19 fret signature Irish Tenor Banjo.
  
  
  We can install the Good Time Armrest on the Goodtime 1!
  The Goodtime 1 does not come with the armrest like the more expensive Goodtime 2 does. We came up with a solution! We can install it for you before shipping for only the normal discounted $22 price of the armrest.
  
  Add Planetary Tuning Pegs to Good Time Banjos at BanjoTeacher.com
  We now offer the option to upgrade the standard Guitar tuners that come on Good Time Banjos to Deering's Good Time Planetary Tuning Pegs.
  Good Time Banjos come standard with Guitar Tuners. Guitar Tuners while functional on a banjo only come on beginner banjos that do not cost that much because it saves the manufacturer, and ultimately the customer money. But not because they work better or are the preferred tuning Pegs for a 5-string banjo. Banjos use Planetary geared pegs called Planet Pegs both for functionality and looks.
  Because of the way a banjo with its round shape balances in your lap it is awkward to tune the 1st and 2nd strings on a banjo with guitar tuners. Looks wise, it makes a huge difference. Planet pegs stick straight back from the banjo peghead so they are not seen from the front of the banjo.
  Nothings says "Beginner Banjo" more than guitar tuners because only lower priced beginner banjos have guitar tuners. Upgrading to the Planet Pegs is a wise investment when you first buy your Good Time Banjo. If you try to do it on your own later, it will cost more and you will be left with little screw holes in the back of your headstock from where the guitar tuning pegs were installed.
  
  Comments from Ross Nickerson
  I've had many students start with this model with a lot of success. Its one of those banjos you just don't want to put down. I know you'll be satisfied if you choose to learn on the Deering Goodtime Banjo.
  
  I wrote the above paragraph back when we added the Good time Banjos to the site. I just received these comments below by email. He mentions how he can't put it down. As a teacher that's one of the biggest attribute and selling points for the Goodtime 1.
  
  .....Even in the short time that I have had it, I find it almost irresistible for its light weight and tone (just snatch it off the rack and practice for a while;) John C

  Customer email feedback
  ....Hello Ross, I received my Goodtime Banjo in, what to me must be, record time; not more than 48 hours after we spoke on the phone..... The armrest and the capo spikes are also a welcome addition. Finally, the setup was perfect, just a quick tune and I was ready to go. It will suit my needs perfectly as my wife and I travel a lot in our RV. Thank you for recommending it!

  Open Back Banjos

  Open Back Banjos for Bluegrass, Clawhammer, Old Time and Folk Styles

  Featuring Gold Tone and Deering Open Back Banjos
  
  Open-back banjos are normally associated with a popular style of banjo playing called clawhammer. Clawhammer banjo is normally associated with a genre of traditional music that is different from bluegrass that is called Old Time Music, Old Timey, folk or traditional Appalachian music. You can also learn bluegrass on open back banjos but the open back banjos with "scooped necks" are made specifically for clawhammer only.
  
  Open back banjos generally have a mellower tone and weigh less than resonator banjos. The clawhammer models often have what is called a scooped neck which takes out the highest five frets of the banjo neck. This is done to make it possible to play "clawhammer style" closer to the fret board and forward of the pot or round section of the banjo that has the drum head on it.

  5-String Guitar Banjo

  5-string Banjo Guitars

  The Doc Fossey Guitar for the 5-String Banjo Player
  The Fossey 5-sring Banjo with a Guitar body is played just like a normal 5-string banjo in open G Tuning. It's a great alternative banjo for a lighter weight, different tone, softer volumes, new innovations and more sustain. The Fossey 5 string guitar banjo also has a more forgiving sound for novice players and students while offering more experienced players a whole new world too.

  The Doc Fossey guitar is an innovative instrument designed for five string banjo players. It allows the five string banjo player to employ the finger picking style of play into other genres of music beyond bluegrass, such as folk, rock, classical, and many more.

  Ome Banjos

  Ome Banjos will be available at BanjoTeacher.com through Gold Tone Music Group
  

  Ome Banjos maker of high quality hand made banjos since the 1960's has been acquired by Gold Tone Music Group and will be available at BanjoTeacher,com.
  
  Stay Tuned for More Updates on Ome Banjos
  
  Gold Tone Music Group has announced a tentative agreement to acquire the well known Ome Banjo Company, maker of high quality banjos for over 50 years.
  

  
  Chuck Ogsbury of Ome and Wayne and Robyn Rogers of Gold Tone have completed talks about the goals each party has for the future of Ome. All agree that primary among these is that Ome remain a banjo brand whose products are to be built in America, with 100% North American parts content. In addition, it is Gold Tone’s intention to maintain Ome’s well known ultra-high build quality and perfect workmanship. Gold Tone managing director Justin Grizzle will spearhead the movement of operations from Boulder to Titusville, FL to facilitate the tightest control possible over the new division’s manufacturing operation. Justin will also supervise overall marketing and online media efforts.

  
  Initial plans for the Ome product line will include continued emphasis on Ome’s well-loved openback banjo offerings, with between four and six of the most popular models to be offered first. Other parts of the Ome range will follow as the facilities are built out and staffed. In addition, current Ome owners whose banjos are still under warranty protection can be assured that their coverage is still in force.

  
  While Gold Tone is renowned for offering instruments with very high value-for-price, they’ve started (with banjos such as the OB-3 “Twanger”, the OB-2 Bowtie and the very successful OB-Béla) to offer instruments aimed at the semi-pro and professional banjoist. With the pending acquisition of Ome Banjos, Gold Tone is proud to offer Ome banjos to further fill those needs, and to have been chosen by Chuck Ogsbury to carry on the legacy of the company he began over fifty years ago.
