When I started playing 5-string banjo I bought a Gold Tone cc 100R it was a pretty solid banjo, I sold it probably 3 or more years ago, but I just got it back, traded an old fiddle to the guy for it. I remember why I like this thing, it a real good banjo for the price. I`ve taken off the resonator and am gonna use it to explore some Claw. Happy pickin`
