General

For any and all banjo players to be, Gold Tone present their complete CC-BG Cripple Creek starter set packed with all the essentials needed to get off on the right foot. This includes the Cripple Creek closed back banjo, a lesson DVD, a carry strap, plectrums and a tuning device.

CC-BG Cripple Creek

The CC-BG Cripple Creek is a closed back banjo, which means there's a resonator plate on the back of the pot to project the sound towards the front in order to get more volume and a fiery, characteristic banjo sound. The higher fifth string also offers some assistance here. For a comfortable playing experience an arm rest has been mounted and Gold Tone haven't overlooked the looks of this traditional instrument either and have graced it with a vintage brown finish to match its beautiful Bluegrass sound.

Wrote the following about Gold Tone CC-BG Cripple Creek Closed Back Banjo Starter Set

Echt een prima prijs-kwaliteitverhouding. Deze banjo heeft goede hardware en is erg netjes afgewerkt. Hij klinkt overal op de hals zuiver en speelt licht. De resonantie is prima en banjo heeft een vol en warm geluid. Wat mij betreft zijn de banjo's van Gold Tone een hele goede keuze in het lagere prijssegment. Zoek je een open back-banjo, dan heeft Gold Tone goede (goedkope) opties. En als je een resonator-banjo zoekt (qua volume en klank het meest geschikt voor bluegrass en traditionele standards), dan is deze CC-BG de beste optie

Ik heb deze Banjo gekocht omdat ik graag Banjo wilt gaan leren spelen. Deze Banjo bevalt mij goed omdat er ook alles bij zit wat je nodig hebt om te beginnen. Het zal niet de ,,Rolls Royce ,, zijn onder de Banjo,s maar ik ben er super blij mee. En het is een beginners set dus goed genoeg voor mij om hier Banjo op te gaan leren spelen.
