Entry level banjos must be designed for easy learning. The cripple Creek 50 with resonator and planetary tuners (CC-50RP) is just that!

Features include a hard Maple neck and rim, a convertible mahogany resonator, Planetary tuners, a geared 5th string tuner, single coordinator rod, straight-line tailpiece, rosewood fingerboard, and a brass tone ring. With a complete setup at the Gold Tone factory in Florida, the CC-50RP is the perfect model for the entry level bluegrass banjo player. The CC-50RP includes a light-duty gig bag for easy transport.

  • Great Gold Tone Banjo Deal!
Thanks Amazon, The CC-50RP Cripple Creek Banjo arrived on time, undamaged. That's all I could ask for, a quality instrument at a fair price. Thanks again.

  • VERY nice beginner banjo...and maybe more
This is my first banjo. (At some point in their life, every man has to face up to his "inner banjo player" and decide what to do about it. I have decided to learn to play the banjo....) I looked around quite a bit after relatively quickly deciding to stay away from the various catalog "banjo kits" for beginners that you see for <200 bucks. Gold Tone makes excellent banjos at affordable prices for beginners...and you don't end up with a banjo that sounds bad or is real hard to learn to play on. I've since compared it to other similar price banjos, and it really looks to me to have the best overall combination of feature set and material quality for the price range. I bought it for a beginner banjo...but I don't feel any need to upgrade to a nicer banjo any time soon. I expect this Gold Tone Cripple Creek CC-50RP to last me for several years to come.... ... show more

  • It's Made In China
It's not American Made. I returned the banjo. I was adamant I wanted an American Made banjo.

  • Great Banjo
Very easy to play. Sounds great. Will sound better when I learn to play better. It came without the resonator attached but was easily done with some help from my friends.

  • Jesus meant for me to have this banjo.
I ordered an AC-1 Gold Tone Banjo because my ex seemed to have misplaced my secondhand banjo after our separation. I just wanted a banjo again so the AC-1 fit my pocketbook. I was pleasantly surprised when I received a CC-50RP in the AC-1 box. I don't think it was a screwup at the factory, I just think Jesus wanted me to have this banjo. ... show more
