Nice to hear all these quality banjos alongside each other. I like the Yates and the Huber RB-75. This ad was paid for by a Gold Tone OB-150 owner.
The stelling had the best growl
Love this video. Would love to see more like it 🙂🪕😎🪕
That first Huber sounds excellent and so does the Kel Kroyden 👍
Anything would sound good in this guys hands, a great comparison of some top end banjos, I just need to get over the pond to have a better look, I may be some time 😳
I have to give the Deering as best in the tone and ring.
Sounds great ,my GoldTone sounds just like those....luv it...
I''d say the same. My Gold Tone also sounds very good as those, thanks to Jake and Adam tweaking it for me!
They all sound good.
I would love to see some comparisons of low and mid level banjos against high ends like this with one person playing the same song on each. I have an 82 Alvarez bluegrass special I bought when I was a teenager, and am just starting to play again after several years. It would be great to see what the differences are.
For sure, great request! I will say that the span between the banjos is not near as great now as it used to be...folks are making some really fine and affordable banjos nowadays!
They both sounded great to my ear. The Huber seemed to have a little more tone and the Deering seemed to have a little more presence. Its so hard to judge without actually trying them out. I wanted the Huber, but now, i seem to feel that the Deering is looking good. I'm in no real hurry except that the longer i wait, the more expensive it is!
In my book the deering has the best sound and sustain I have deering calico and it plays like a dream and if u want it to be it is incredibly loud with lots of punch my friend has a Huber it is also a great banjo thx for the video cousinandy
Deering makes good banjos now but it took them til 2010 to do it. Their earlier rings and flanges were not slip fit amongst other issues, until Kruger worked w them from the Swiss foundry.
I just pulled the trigger on that Huber Granada!
You sure did, and you ain't never gonna regret it! What a banjo!!
@@BanjoBen Hey Ben, my Huber got delivered yesterday, and boy howdy am I loving this thing. It hasn't made me a better player, but it sure is making me sound like one!
Congrats, what a beauty. Hope you're still loving it!
the Yates and huber. got to get up before daylight to beat them.
Does the KK have a Dannick tone ring?
how much is the derring love it
The Deering
I have a Huber resonator that came from that batch of veneers. They all have that odd little figuring near the bottom of the reso, where the figure goes a little against the purely lateral trend of the grain.
What is that thumbpick? Giepel?

Why do all Deering banjos sound like they are playing through someone’s nose?
Precisely why I play a Gibson and a Stelling.
Deering makes good product it just took them awhile to get their specifications together after 2010 their banjos sounded better.
I bought a Huber Kalamazoo but had to swap out the neck for a wider one made by an Independent Luthier. The Huber necks are too narrow. Also, the strings sit to low to the head up next to the neck.

Now play clawhammer on it
I have a banjo given to me by Jim Rae the Mayo Clinic engineer who designed the HR30 tone ring, that is the "R" on the tone ring. While it is a great banjo, I think a good Stelling is as good as any. I don't think there is any perfect banjo. Earl said that the new banjos are just as good as the old pre-war ones. When I played in the park in Ocala, Florida , a few years ago, I heard a good Derring played with a good Gibson. While they didn't sound the same, the Deering was just as pleasing. There was a Stelling there too and it was a good banjo, but it wasn't the best Stelling I ever heard. It's time to forget about the pre-war sound and move on. I heard a pre-war what looked a RB6, a beautiful bajo, that didn't sound as good as a banjo I built myself. I think the sound of a banjo depends on who is playing it more than the banjo itself.
I agree with a lot of this.
@@BanjoBen What don't you agree with? It's like voices. We should be able to appreciate any voice we like. We don't all have to agree that Elvis had the best voice ever. Let's enjoy variety. I like your sisters the Clark sisters. I think they are wonderful.
@@merlynschutterle7242 I've played some legit prewar flatheads that absolutely cannot be beat by anything else.
@@BanjoBen I haven't had the opportunity to compare them. I will take your word for it.They might not be beat, but are there any that can match them in any way?
@@merlynschutterle7242 There are some, yes, that get closer than others, but I don't think any that measure up.
Whatever you do...don't tell how much they are...
This vid was made 4 years ago. Whatever you do, don’t assume the prices are the same today 😊
Yeh if I had a gold plated banjo I wouldnt be fingering it all over lol especially if i was trying to sell it lol.
any good salesman will say they are good??? you say you are excited about it but you sure do not show it...to many people today will say anything to sell something...not putting you down but people lose credibility to me when they say things like that...nice looking banjos but I will keep my Osborne chief..
Howdy, Gary. Yep, any good salesman will say they are good, as well as any honest person that knows what they're talking about. Enjoy your Chief, a fine banjo.
I agree, thanks,Gary
I'm here to tell you, If Adam says it's a good playing/sounding banjo, you can take it to the bank! I enjoyed the demos, Adam!
The banjos all sound good but I believe Adam can make ANY banjo sound great! Are his hands for sale?
I can tell you for sure Ben and Adam and the crew are not in the selling banjo business for the money. They ain’t selling in bulk here buddy. Lol
They do this for the students and the fans and as a service to us players that do not want to buy from a cut throat big box or guitar center type store.
They honestly care about their customers.
I like just a hour from the store and I know how much inventory they move… if they wanted to “play salesman” and sell in bulk they would need a much larger facility and staff. These guys are NOT salesman just selling merchandise but professional musicians doing what they love to service their fellow musicians!
