Deering does make a fine instrument - that I would call a banjitar - that is a guitar on a banjo body. Sounds fine, plays well.

I'm not really impressed with these instruments. Maybe it's kind of a novelty - but banjo is not such a reach for a guitar player that ya can;t get a real banjo ... maybe I'm just cynical. I haven;t fooled much with the 6 string, banjitar.

But I think there really should be a 6 string banjo, that is a G tuning with the fifth string as is, but a lower G for a sixth string. Now, that would make a guitar player happy!
