How To Change Your Banjo Strings
Watch a great video with Chad Kopotic, the Deering Quality Control Manager, who will take you step by step on how to change your banjo strings.
Introducing the new Goodtime Deco Series, a stunning tribute to the vibrant American Art Deco design movement of the 1920s when the banjo reigned as America's most beloved instrument.
Learning how to play the banjo is no different. There are different types of banjos and plenty of new terminology for parts of banjos and playing styles. Aspiring players also wonder what makes one banjo better than another.
Watch and listen to Deering artists play our banjos and choose your favorite tone!
All of our banjos are made by passionate banjo craftsmen and women in our Spring Valley, California shop.
Deering Banjo Company was founded by Greg & Janet Deering in 1975 and continues to be family owned & operated. Today Greg & Janet's daughter Jamie Deering is the CEO of Deering Banjos.
Deering makes banjos. We don't make other instruments. We focus on what we do best and do it at the highest level.

very explicit maybe watch it a couple times before tackling the the work myself many thanks weegeordie.
Great video very easy to follow, THANKS!!
I just changed my strings for the first time by following this video. Thank you! My banjo sounds so much better. My original set of strings had way to many hours on them.
WHEN YOU START TO WIND THE STRING IS IT ALWAYS RIGHTY TIGHTY AND LEFTY LUCY OR DOES IT CHANGE FOR WHICH SIDE OF THE PEG HEAD YOUR ON. THANKS TOM
Wanted to add, too: (Perhaps this was in a post that I missed) about reading these tuners. I run into beginner players who don’t know how to read them, or don’t know they have a “sweet spot”, a place on the peg head where they pick up the string vibrations best. Even a fraction of an inch one way or the other and you can get erroneous readings, or even no reading at all. Sometimes you have to experiment!
Tx again for all the great info and fine instruments.
