2001 Deering Custom Calico. AAAA grade blonde maple neck and resonator (500.00 option). Elaborately engraved 24k gold hardware. Ivoroid binding and checkered purfling around sides of resonator and ebony fretboard. This banjo was won at the 2001 Winfield National Banjo Championship by Steve Lewis, Todd, NC. I bought this banjo from Steve in April 2002. This banjo is in mint condition. It has been played very little and has left the house once in the past ten years. There are no scratches, dents, dings, etc. It is truly one of a kind. It is a very powerful banjo with tons of tone. It comes with the original arched top hard shelled case which is also in excellent condition. The interior of the case is royal blue. It has a new Snuffy Smith bridge. The original Deering bridge is also included. The serial # is 0953201A011.
