Gold Tone isn’t just the company’s name, it’s exactly what you get!Classic tonewoods crafted for folk The CC-50 offers a familiar, folksy tone from a brand that knows banjo building like the back of its hand! The CC-50’s open-back design is a favorite for clawhammer and old-time folk. The tone is airy, relaxed, and right at home at any porch-pickin’ event. The CC-50’s neck and tonewood rim are built from maple. Maple is a classic tonewood for folk instruments, as its tone is strong, clear, resonant, and distinct. Maple also has a bright attack, strengthening acoustic clarity with better note volume and projection. A straight-line tailpiece maple/ebony bridge further distinguishes the CC-50’s tone; opting for a tailpiece made from tonewoods demonstrates Gold Tone’s commitment to passionate, detailed quality.Terminator tailpiece: a bend-free banjo enhancer Proprietary hardware like Gold Tone’s Terminator tailpiece gives players at any level serious bang for their buck. But does this bend-free tailpiece live up to its aggressive name? Absolutely. The Terminator’s high-mass build still delivers old-school tone while also improving upon the brittle, bend-prone nature of old-school tailpieces. The Terminator will never bend, and that’s a Gold Tone guarantee. Moreover, players can string the Terminator with loop- or ball-end strings. Your favorite banjo strings are always an option, and you can use whatever strings are available in a pinch — at a gig, for example. The Terminator’s tone seals the deal with tight body contact that helps strings resonate more for power and projection that holds nothing back.Zero Glide: patented precision makes playability smooth Gold Tone’s Zero Glide nut is a tiny piece of hardware that enhances instrument performance drastically. The patented design pairs a sustain-boosting bone nut with a hard nickel-silver “zero fret” for enhanced reliability and sound. Zero Glide nuts grace the headstocks of electric guitars, acoustic guitars, banjos, and even ukuleles. The benefits are clearly universal! Zero Glide’s precision-cut string slots further reduce string contact by a staggering 93% at the nut — meaning fewer tuning breaks and better resonance, especially when playing gets aggressive. Zero Glide also narrows sonic differences between fretted- and open-string notes while solving common intonation issues for innovative accuracy without compromising character.Gold Tone CC-50 Cripple Creek Banjo Features: An excellent 5-string banjo for beginners (or experienced pickers in need of a backup) Hard maple neck and multi-ply maple rim deliver clear tone with distinct banjo twang Voiced for old-timey folk and clawhammer technique High-performance Terminator tailpiece; vintage-inspired but enhanced for modern durability and performance Musical rolled brass tone ring and Zero Glide bone nut Resonant a maple/ebony tailpiece and durable chrome-plated tuners Rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays fuels accurate fret hand comfort 11-inch Remo LC Coated Topside head Receives a full setup at Gold Tone’s Florida facility for quality assurance SpecificationDetail Type Acoustic String Type Steel Number of Strings 5 Body Style Open Back Color Vintage Brown Finish Satin Top Material 11" Remo LC Coated Topside Body Material Multi-ply Maple Neck Material Maple Fingerboard Material Rosewood Fingerboard Inlay Dots Number of Frets 22 Scale Length 26.19" Nut Material ZeroGlide Nut Width 1.19" Bridge Material Maple Tuners Sealed Hardware Chrome Strings .011, .024w, .016, .013, .011 Case Included Gig Bag RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
