Fifteen years later, they founded Gold Tone Banjos in Titusville, Florida. Their first product, the TB-100 banjo, was designed by Wayne. As demand for this critically acclaimed instrument increased, the company expanded its offerings to include a selection of fretted instruments that combine modern innovation and timeless vintage design. The goal? To inspire all musicians, from beginners to professionals, to realize their musical dreams. Today, Sweetwater is pleased to offer you Gold Tone’s exciting range of 4-, 5-, and 6-string banjos, banjo ukuleles, metal- and wood-bodied resonator guitars, Weissenborn Hawaiian steel guitars, and mandolins.Gold Tone Plucky Traveler Banjo Features: 2-pound travel-size banjo for young players and on-the-road performers Traditional maple neck and 8-inch multi-ply maple flat bar rim facilitate rich folk tone with a crisp high-end twang Open-back 8-inch Remo head projects sound at the level of a full-scale instrument No Knot tailpiece keeps tuning stable and makes string changes a breeze Sleek maple fingerboard with dot inlays Easy-access coordinator rods provide easy access to minor neck adjustments Maple bridge with ebony cap and true bone nut facilitate authentic string vibrations with enhanced resonance Sealed guitar-style tuners keep stable intonation Complimentary chrome-plated hardware Set up at Gold Tone’s Florida workshop for optimal performance SpecificationDetail Type Acoustic String Type Steel Number of Strings 5 Body Style Open Back Color Vintage Brown Finish Gloss Top Material 8" Remo LC Smooth Body Material 3-ply Maple Neck Material Maple Fingerboard Material Maple Fingerboard Inlay Dots Number of Frets 21 Scale Length 15.89" Nut Width 1.19" Bridge Material Maple Tuners Sealed Hardware Chrome Strings .010, .024w, .016, .013, .010 Case Included Gig Bag RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
