Description

n late 2018, "Banjo Ben" Clark, Jake Stogdill, and Robby Boone had a concept for replicating one of the most iconic banjos, played by the one of the most iconic banjo players of all time, JD Crowe's original RB-3 ("Banger"). After extensive research, and with great attention to every detail, Gold Tone was able to rebirth this classic banjo. What makes this banjo truly unique is its "No Hole" tone ring, which really tightens up the sustain. It also features the original measurements on the headstock, neck and body, nickel plated hardware, slanted resonator walls, vintage inlay, a Presto tailpiece, concentric resonator rings, and a brown mahogany finish. We've designed hundreds of banjos in the last 25 years, but tone-wise, this outperforms every previous model. Includes an archtop hardshell case, lifetime transferrable warranty, and can optionally be ordered with capo spikes, pickup, Zero Glide upgraded nut, or as a left-handed model.

  • Item was used
I can’t believe I was sent a used banjo that I bought as new. How do I know? The bridge was shipped up and in place. No packing of the banjo in the case.

  • Plays great and sounds better than most $3 -4000.00 banjos.
Sucks it's made in China. Cant deny the fact that it hangs with the best of American made banjos. Very loud. The notes jump of the strings and "pops" really nice!
