Made by Deering in San Diego, California, it pairs an all-maple foundation with a deep black stain, black head, and matte black hardware for a look equally suited to bluegrass stages, alternative ensembles, and players bringing the banjo into less conventional musical territory. The Midnight Maple fingerboard and vintage Artisan-style pearloid inlays add another layer of visual personality while retaining the straightforward, player-focused spirit that has made the Goodtime family so approachable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eUnderneath its distinctive appearance is the same kind of construction that gives the Goodtime its musical identity. A rock maple neck joins a 3-ply violin-grade maple rim, creating a lively foundation for the banjo's attack, resonance, and note definition. The slender D neck shape keeps the playing experience comfortable, while 22 nickel-silver frets and Goodtime planetary tuners provide a familiar setup for both developing players and experienced pickers. Railroad spikes installed at the 7th, 9th, and 10th frets make it easier to accommodate common key changes when capoing, an especially practical touch for bluegrass, folk, Americana, and ensemble playing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe Blackgrass proves that a banjo can respect its roots while presenting them with an entirely different attitude. Its black high-crown head, matte black powder-coated hardware, black-stained resonator, and understated satin surfaces give the instrument a cohesive appearance that feels equally appropriate in the hands of a traditional picker, roots-rock musician, or punk player. A Goodtime Smile bridge and patented Goodtime tailpiece complete an instrument designed around uncomplicated functionality, while the resonator configuration provides the projection and presence players expect when they need the banjo to stand confidently in a mix.
