Description
Economically
priced, the Maple Classic MC-150 is the first model in the Gold Tone
line that offers a 20-hole flat top tone ring. A considerable upgraded
model from the Cripple Creek Series, the Maple Classic features a
thicker maple tone rim, maple neck with snowflake inlay, maple
resonator, shoe style lugs, an alloy tone ring, two way adjustable truss
rod, Straight Line tailpiece, and a beautiful gloss finish. This model
is convertible which means the resonator may be easily detached for
playing in an open back style. The MC-150 just recently received a rave
review from a popular folk magazine in England which described its
incredible tone for the price. With a complete setup here at the Gold
Tone Factory in Florida, the MC-150 just cannot be beat in its price
range for quality and tone.
The Maple Classic is also available in kit form for the do-it-yourself craftsman! See the MC-Kit.
