Fantastic Open Back 5 String Banjo by Deering.

Just had new strings put on it and it plays and sounds amazing!

Comes with original branded hard case (some marks but overall very good condition).

Has a Soho piezo pickup mounted to the rear side of the skin so you can finally be heard without the need for a mic!

From Deering:

'When you step up to a Little Wonder you get a banjo featuring a durable ebony fingerboard that gives you the look and feel of a professional instrument. Both the comfortable neck and quality 11" rim are stained with a deep warm brown. The pot has a coordinator rod that easily and accurately adjusts the banjos "action″ or string height for easy playability. The peghead of the maple neck is overlaid with black and is inlaid with a white Vega logo and beautifully engraved star.

The Little Wonder is fully adjustable through the truss rod in the neck, the coordinator rod, and the Deering True Tone tailpiece. Planetary tuning machines come standard on the Little Wonder. It is bright, responsive and full of life and easy to take with you anywhere because of the light weight.
