{"product_id":"2023-vega-white-oak-12-5-string-banjo-used-16279","title":"2023 Vega White Oak 12\" 5-String Banjo - Used","description":"This Vega White Oak was built by Deering in 2023. It’s in excellent structural and cosmetic condition with just a hint of fret wear. We've often wondered why more American guitar and banjo makers don't use white oak, as it's a great domestic hardwood that makes a stiff and sturdy neck. Deering also uses white oak for the shell of this banjo, with wood this hard the tapered top edge makes a metal tone ring unnecessary and the result is a nice woody tone. Includes the original hardshell case in equally clean condition.","brand":"Deering Banjo Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43592481636551,"sku":"VEGWHTOAK12-12081023AP96","price":1550.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/4947\/3991\/files\/1122591.jpg?v=1780478693","url":"https:\/\/www.gryphonstrings.com\/products\/2023-vega-white-oak-12-5-string-banjo-used-16279","provider":"Gryphon Strings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
