If you're looking for the articulate snap and prewar tone of an all maple
5-string resonator banjo from the 1930's, the GF-200 is the perfect
choice! This instrument represents the culmination of years of
development involving the re-issue of the legendary Gold Star® banjos of
the late 1970's and 1980's that set the standard for how modern banjos
similar to those of the prewar period are made. Only the best
hand-selected flamed maple is used for the neck and resonator and is
finished in a beautiful shaded vintage sunburst. All hardware is
beautifully nickel-plated and manufactured to meet vintage
specifications assuring that the GF-200 not only sounds amazing and
looks incredible, but performs on a professional level, too. So, when
you are ready to Shift your Break into Overdrive, get your hands on a
Gold Star®!
The Gold Star GF-200 Flamed Maple Sunburst 5-String Banjo has a classic bluegrass tone. It's an amazing sound that comes from its deeply arched resonator with tapered wall. Flamed maple construction and hand-cut hearts and flowers inlay give the GF-200 eye appeal, and its smooth Brazilian rosewood fretboard lends it a finger-friendly feel. Each Gold Star banjo is shop adjusted. Old-fashioned quality for an old-fashioned price! Includes a deluxe vintage banjo case!
