Overview

Upgraded features give this entry-level banjo to the next level while you work you way there.

The Gold Tone CC-100+ Cripple Creek open-back banjo features a hard maple neck, dual coordinator rods, curly maple headstock veneer, Terminator tailpiece, rolled brass tone ring, 2-way adjustable truss rod, and low string action for the beginning banjoist. The "Plus" model includes upgraded features like a beautiful vintage brown finish, 3-ply Canadian maple rim, 24 bracket hooks, Gold Tone engraved arm rest and the upgraded GT Master planetary tuners featured on Gold Tone's most expensive models.

This entry-level banjo includes the features and tone of Gold Tone's open-back Cripple Creek CC-100+ which gives you "more bang for the buck." Over 35,000 Cripple Creeks have been sold in the last 20 years, and have proven by far to be one of the best student banjos for tone and playability in its price range. With a complete setup at the Gold Tone Factory in Florida, they are durable, have low string action and are a pleasure to play.
