Gold Tone AC-12 12" 5-String Openback Banjo Matte Black

Description

The Gold Tone AC-12 is a 12" full-featured old-time openback banjo for an accessible price. The AC-12 has everything the modern old-time banjo player could want: a generous 1-7/16” ZeroGlide nut, a separate rosewood fretboard on a nato mahogany neck with frailing scoop, an adjustable two-way truss rod with peghead-located adjuster and a durable 12" composite rim with coordinator rod for fine action adjustment, along with a handsome tailpiece for easy string-changes and proper down-pressure. Ultra-light at just 5 lb., this featherweight banjo comes with a gig bag included.
