I was the lucky winner of the Banjo Hangout August drawing for a Gold Tone CC Traveler banjo. Today, I finished getting it "accessorized" so I have everything on it and in the case I need in order to play it. Installing the railroad spikes to capo the fifth string was the lengthiest part of getting it ready to play. I like the tone and appearance of the banjo, and it holds its tuning well.
The space between the J hooks and rim is too small to thread a strap in the space. However, that problem was solved by using spring snap hooks that do fit in the space between the J hooks and rim.
Being two frets shorter than a regular five-string banjo, and having a rolled brass tone ring makes the banjo quite light - another feature that makes it a "Traveler."
