Gold Tone CC-OT Cripple Creek Open Back Scooped Neck Banjo 2020s - Brown Satin (with Gig Bag)

The Gold Tone CC-OT has everything you need to start thumping that head. The Remo Fiberskyn head itself is mounted on a sweet banjo with a half-inch-thick maple rim topped with a rolled-brass hoop (very Old Timey). The comfy maple neck has a rosewood fretboard complete with scoop, and both the neck and the rim wear a rich brown satin finish. Other furnishings include a No Knot tailpiece, a reproduction of the early 1900s armrest (secured by the banjo's bracket hooks), and vintage Fairbanks-style headstock shape.

This banjo is in mint condition. I was unable to find any flaws on it at all. I currently have it in Sawmill tuning and it sounds great even with a horrible player like me. I have to admit, I’ve always wanted a quality banjo with a scooped neck, so if this one doesn’t sell quickly I may just keep it.

All of the items I sell are used. Most of them are vintage or antique. Unless described as such, none will be completely perfect. I describe any defects that I see, but if you have questions the time to ask them is before the transaction is completed. I have no problem responding to questions or requests for specific pictures and I do so very quickly. I have a liberal refund policy, but I will not issue a refund for a cosmetic issue that does not effect playability or tone. Thank you.
