Deering Banjo Company

Sure, the banjo is notable in bluegrass music - a music form which probably got its start in Appalachia. But the Deering Banjo Company is located in California near San Diego. Here they manufacture these stringed instruments with the distinct twangy sound. See how a banjo is born - from pieces of wood and hardware to the glorious instrument made even more famous in the movie "Deliverance."
