Such a detail-oriented approach to banjo instruction gives Sweetwater players the confidence to buy smart and play hard with the CC-BG starter pack. Gold Tone isn’t just the company’s name, it’s exactly what you get!Classic tonewoods crafted for folk The CC-50R Resonator Banjo offers bold tone from a brand that knows banjo building like the back of its hand! Its neck, resonator, and 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. The CC-50R’s 13-inch maple resonator enhances volume, brightness, and attack clarity even further; such extra power is essential when competing with a loud guitarist (or two) at any porch-pickin’ event. But keep in mind, this flangeless resonator can be easily removed for a softer, open-back banjo voice. A straight-line tailpiece maple/ebony bridge further distinguishes the CC-50R’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-BG Cripple Creek Banjo Bluegrass Starter Pack Features: Gold Tone’s best-selling CC-50R resonator banjo, packaged with accessories for bold value and big savings!
