Deering Golden Era 5-String 2010

This thing is in excellent shape and probably the youngest Golden Era for sale right now.

There is almost no wear at all on the drum. There are a couple compression mark on the neck pictured. Otherwise this thing is excellent overall and virtually mint from a playability standpoint. Frets and board looks almost untouched.

This is (one of) Deerings crown jewel model.Includes hardshell case pictured.

Below is more from the manufacturer. Enjoy!
