Undeniably a world-beating value in a twelve-inch clawhammer banjo, the Gold Tone CC-Carlin12 has all the right stuff: a nut width of 1 and 3/8", a two-way truss rod in the maple neck, scooped black-bound fret board with dot inlays and a three-ply maple rim. Set up by Gold Tone's luthiers to play perfectly right out of the included gig bag, the Gold Tone CC-Carlin12 is an unbeatable buy. Available as left-handed model.
The Gold Tone Banjo Company signaled its intent to continue fine-tuning and expanding its line of openback banjos, when it began collaborating with distinguished clawhammer maestro Bob Carlin. For over 30 years Carlin has spread the artistry of clawhammer banjo through his worldwide performances, his innumerable recording projects and his banjo teaching materials, scholarly writings, lectures and workshops.
