OVERVIEW

Lightweight, inexpensive, great-sounding open back banjo.

Proclaimed "Best in Show / MUST Stock" instrument at the 2016 Summer NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants) Show in Nashville, Tennessee, the left-handed Gold Tone AC-1 Composite Open Back Banjo sets the bar for an economical, well-made, great-sounding and durable beginner banjo. No other maker on the planet offers so much to the novice banjoist for so little. The superior-sounding composite rim mated to a slim, playable neck, produces a banjo that weighs less than four pounds. The AC-1 is the perfect choice for beginners, travel use or for a child's first banjo. Handsome, with its matching black neck, rim, Zero Glide nut and tuner buttons, the AC-1 is professionally set up in Gold Tone's Florida shop and comes with a three-year transferrable warranty.
