If not why are they displayed?** A: The picture is wrong. It shows the 22 fret Goodtime 1 banjo. Be sure to call Amazon before you purchase, The parlor banjo only has 19 frets and no resonator. BUT if you go to Deering.com you can purchase the goodtime retrofit resonator kit for around $250. I did and it makes one heck of a small banjo!. **Q: Hi, does this come with a carrying box and is there a warranty? Thanks!** A: Yes, the box is cardboard and has a carrying handle. Deering does sell a "real" carrying case, but you will have to pay for it. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Super quality, great sound *by P***S on Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2021* Top quality, rich sound, crisp and bright almost equal to full-sized tenor banjo. Way better than any other banjoleles I've heard. Hand crafted, meticulously finished, sturdy, and handsome. We'll worth the price. Custom case is very protective, excellent quality. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Deering good... dealer bad. *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2019* Deering is a good banjo maker, but this one would not stay in tune—strings installed incorrect. I cannot say by dealer or maker. I am very lucky that this banjo made it to me unharmed as it was packaged substandard and the accessories just tossed in the shipping box which I almost threw away. Dealers are just in it for the money and do not really care. In addition, the UPS driver left it in the rain rather than on the porch... my wife saved it! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/171449947-deering-goodtime-special-5-string-banjo-with-resonator-of-blonde](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/171449947-deering-goodtime-special-5-string-banjo-with-resonator-of-blonde) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-19*
