Review for "Gold Tone AC-5 Beginner Bluegrass Banjo"
Gold Tone AC-5 Beginner Bluegrass Banjo Gold Tone AC-5 Company DescriptionWe “borrowed" the composite body idea from RainSong and Ovation, and discovered an efficient method for producing a wonderful, bright, loud sounding 5-string banjo at an unbelievable price. Includes standard transferable warranty The AC-5 Resonator Banjo may stray a bit from the traditional wood body banjo design, but it packs a punch like no other and will stand up against any banjo in it's price range. The rim and resonator are molded from a composite material that is as long, consistent, and durable. Whether you are new to the banjo and looking for an affordabe model to get started on, or you seek the ultimate travel banjo, this banjo packs more than enough heat to echo through the hills and shine in any campfire jam Comments from Ross Nickerson, owner of banjoteacher.comThe Gold Tone AC 5 is a perfect design to land this banjo in the "best beginner banjo for the price" category with superior wood neck intonation and bright tone than any other banjo in it's price range. When I heard about bringing back the composite design I though oh good, but expected something like the 1970's Harmony harmony banjos. Oops, not even close, these are way better. They have a wood neck and the intonation is as spot on as the expensive bluegrass banjos I use. The body is of much higher quality too and the tone was great. I mean that too. This is a great banjo and a lot of banjo for the cost. The pictures don't really do it justice. I recommend them.Note: The Gold Tone AC 5 is a completely different banjo from the Gold Tone AC 1. It has a blonde maple neck and a completely different body and resonator.
